Australian Olive growth

SBTNoir Jun 13, 2010 04:40 PM

I own an early 09' I believe, Olive. I bought an 8' female years ago and sold her, big mistake. Then bought a pair, then sold them due to lack of space and living arrangements. am back now with a young male olive. I just wondered if anyone could post adult sizes of their males, and comment about growth rate and feeding? The Olive is my only non colubrid in the collection. She is the token big snake for me. I am simply curious how big he mgith get some day. Any input is appreciated. The snake pictured is from the pair I had a year or two ago.I will try and get a pic of the new guy soon.

I have a 11' male that hasn't grown much in the past year. Also 0ne more male at 9, females at 8 and 10. They slow down as they go over 8-10 foot. But none have the girth of a Burm or even a retic.
