Ball Pythons have a relatively slow metabolism and most reach adult size within 2-3 years of age.

Yeah I agree with both of you mine have grown considerable since I have gotten them and I have had mine only about 8 months. But I have always been tolf that it takes about 2 to 3 years.

I thought Snyder was gettin pretty big -- she's grown 100g in two months -- but that was before the new arrival last night. Now Snyder is tiny. :)

Funny its all relative eh? I got Plissken on Feb 5th and he was 19 inches hes now 23 inches roughly. So thats about 2 inches a month. Im sure that'll slow way down as he gets older.
