Yours is a very nice specimen, and has shown great growth for his age. congrats on that. Mine is a wild caught about 2-3 years ago out of lousiana before the ban. he's missing a few nails from when he was trying to fight his way out of the trap. I was told that he is anywhere between 20-30 years of age.
