His mom was WC and on the large side too, 6ft long. He was CBB. And I got him from the breeder who is a friend of my mom and she posted when the eggs were layer and hatched on FB. Even had pipping pics. I'm not sure what method of sexing was used but I was told he's male. I haven't been able to get ahold of her to ask about the sexing method or the mom or anything.

My normal boy, who was born on June 11, is about 22 inches long. I say about because it's difficult to get him to stretch out to measure. He gets a bit squirmy. ;)

I don't believe I have ever measured the length of any of my snakes.

You can always try and use SnakeMeasureTool software. I use that for measuring snakes without having to bother them with measuring.

It's dead simple. I use a piece of paper (A4 standard letter in EU) and a phone camera. You lay the object of known dimensions beside the snake and take a photo from top view. Then just use the program and load the photo, input the dimensions of known object and trace the snake. Voila :P

Sweet! Thank you for the tip, jxl.

My boy is 7 months old and he's about 2 feet long maybe a little more. :)

The breeder decided to drop by today to check on him and I asked her about it so she sexed him again. Turns out, she gave me the wrong snake and he is a she. And because of that she wants to breed her to one of her males when she's up to size and I get to pick the sire and the baby I want! I'll also get some money but how much depends on how many babies and their morphs.
