    Adult Ball Pythons....

    Does anyone have pictures of an adult who has stopped growing? I'm just looking for an average snake, maybe a 5 foot ball python?

    I just got two ball pythons, and they are only 2 feet long right now. I'm curious about what they will look like fully grown.

    Also, what is an average diameter of a fully grown snake?

    Thanks for anwsering the noob questions!

    -Matthew

    Hopefully my snakes grow to be that large! I can't wait until they grow up!
