My first carpet python
Coastals can get up to 11 or 12 feet i believe, those are probably big females and not generally the norm though.
Congrats on the purchase.

I would expect a male coastal to get a good 7ft possibly 8. Here is the link to Peterson Reptiles. Never heard of him but he has some good looking stuff.
Edit: You got a good looking little guy there. Just remember, Carpets are slow growers and over feeding them can cause them to look disproportional.

I like your little guy. Ben always seems to get in nice carpets of all sorts. I would expect 7-8ft, and like was said he'll take at least 5 years to get there.
