    Lmao!! That's awesome. For some reason, when I hear 'spurs' I immediately think of the cowboy boot spurs, then I think of 'urban cowboys' who wore huge spurs on their boots, and then... ya.... wierd train of thought :P

    I'm realizing that alot of people weight them instead of measuring them (make's sense, I could imagine it's not easy to measure a long snake).

    I wish I knew exactly how old mine is, the guy at the pet store said he was under a year, but after hearing about some of yours being 21in. at 3 months and 4ft. at the one year mark I'm kind of wondering if mine's younger than I thought. I don't know his weight, and if I had to guess I'd say he's about 3 inches in diameter at his thickest part. I originally thought he was almost a year old, although now I'm starting to wonder if he's only a few months. I guess I'll never know. Anyway great to here about your BP's :rockon:

    I think that, like people, individual size varies. Genetics plays a part, and then there's feeding frequency, prey size, etc.


    I don't know if there is a sure-fire way to tell the age of a snake...that's an interesting question!

    Well I bought my girl at a pet store (i know, i know, but my next one will be from a breeder dont worry) so I don't know the exact DOB but I had a vet estimate it to be the end of last year. She was about 20" when I first got her back in March and shes now about 30". The last time she was weighed she was about 440g. And yes they are a pain to measure the length, never seem to want to straigten out when you want to measure em.
