Age question

moleman11 Oct 02, 2005 12:22 AM

I've had my ball for about a week now. He's 24 inches long. Any idea on what his probable age is. I know they average 15-17 inches as hatchlings and grow about a foot a year...does that mean he's probably a little under a year old, or more like 4-6 months?

can affect the growth rate of your snake that it is dificult to give you a good answer. I have 2 month old bp's that eat every two days and are 24" plus already, but I've also seen 04's that were only about 24".
