Growth rate?

Hey guys, my question is this..I would like to have my BP grow large, but I've had him for 2 years now and he's now about 2 ft. long. Is this a good growth rate? How can I have him grow into a heavier snake and about 4 ft. long? Thanks!

Ball pythons will grow of their own accord, provided they are being fed well. Males are typically smaller then females, so I wouldn't expect your male to be overly large. Some males have grown to be longer than 5 feet; they exist, but this is very rare.

Ball python growth can't be mandated or forced - they're all different. And most often, completely random. You can have have a gigundo female lay a clutch, and some hatchlings from that same clutch will grow to be somewhat small. Just offer your BP appropriately sized meals every 7 days, and he'll grow to whatever potential is set out for him. Just please, don't power feed. :gj:

As long as you are feeding him appropriately sized meals then he will continue to grow. A 2 year old snake will grow considerably slower then a hatchling or yearling.

For reference, I feed my 2 year old ball pythons small rats weighting about 90-100g each once a week.
