How big will he get?

i have a 8 month old male that is 511 grams right now, how much bigger will he get?

I don't know about weight, but males (I assume you mean ball pythons) get up to around 2-3 feet (60-90 cm). I'd guess maybe around 1600+ grams.

yes i mean a BP id say he is close the that length now, about as round as a circle made with thumb and middle finger

Once they get to a decent length about 3 feet they will then start to really fill out in girth. 2,000 gram adult is not unheard of at all

Or...

3000 gr. like my big boy ! :) Although that is the exception..

That, he is :)

The biggest ball python I've ever seen is about 5000 grams. Check it out:

Of course it all depends on how much you feed them. I also think some lines of ball pythons are genetically different and grow a bit bigger than most. Most of my older bigger females are less than 3000 grams. You can keep them sub 1500 grams if you limit feed them and watch their weight.

No one said anything about overfeeding this time. I wonder if he ever stopped eating. My male is a pain in the ass. If his weight went over 1400 gr. he will stop eating until his weight goes back between 1000 to 1100 gr.
