I went to the Tampa Reptile Mania and Exotic Expo on March 9th and saw some giant-size western paints. Looking at them, you'd swear they were 12 inches, but the vender said they were 8 1/2 inches. It just now popped into my mind, how big do western paints get? They were begging for food, so I'm assuming they were either captive bred, or kept for a long time after being caught from the wild.



Thanks, Cliff
