Biggest python maybe, not BALL python,
Probably a Burmese python at that size.

I beleive he was joking due to a burmese on the loose that was 15ft was called a 25ft ball python. but the biggest I've seen was around 7.5ft and 20 something lbs.

I'd like to see a picture of that BP. 7'5" and over 9000 grams. Hard to believe, I know I've seen some in the 4000-5500 gram range...but wow.

Uh-Oh
My Snake is 3ft and turns a 1 year in a couple weeks. When do they stop growing?

Snakes never stop growing. Although they do slow down considerably after 3 years.
BTW, I'd love to see that 7.5'/9000 gram Ball. Then again, I'd love to see Bigfoot and I suppose the odds of me seeing either one are about the same. :rolleyes:

Oh I wouldn't worry if its a girl shes get there see this girl is 8 years old
And just over 2800 grams
I think she's gorgeous!! It's an 06 male, and he was 135g last month at the vet :( shaped fine, just tiny... but I'm sure he'll still grow now that the mites are gone, and the husbandry is set... he just didn't have a good start! But I'm getting serious snake envy! The other day I held a baby burm *way outta my league even at his tiny size* who was bigger than my snake... he was a bit fiesty for me, I'll take my snake over that guy any day, but but but I like em bigger... oooh I have a question, but since I am trying to learn not to hijack, I'll just go start a thread! LOL

Don't worry...it will grow. My roommates snake doesnt grow as fast as mine but it still grows. You will notice a huge difference by the end of the summer.
I remember my guy. Got him in August and he was just about 4 months old then...didnt notice much but around Christmas time...he was much much bigger and now he is just a freak. :)
The reptile stores/breeders say he is doing really well and growing really fast, but they said i tis good care and good feeding. All I do is keep him on a weekly schedule. So i guess try that and he/she shall grow!
