Hey's looking great jmcrook!
Do you know his weight? What is he eating currently and how often?
I am curious of the growth rate versus Feliz (a dwarf Venezuelan BCC). Feliz was born end of September of 2017, so he's about 3 1/2 years old. He's currently on small rats every two weeks and 830G.
Jeff, my male BI, is growing faster than he was and is 2 and on weaned rats already. So that's male BI to male BCC, but I am curious about your guy, who will definitely be much bigger than Feliz when grown. If Feliz gets much over 5 feet, that would be surprising.
Meanwhile, I still have my female BI, Behira, on medium rats and she's 2.2kg at 4 3/4 years old.
Anyway, growth rate and food intake are pretty correlated, but I imagine male and female and dwarf vs. full size all make a difference. Don't know for sure, hence asking.
Sorry, don't mean to take over the thread at all. I appreciate the understanding in advance.

My oldest male was 6 before he was sexually mature. I have a male from Vin R. that is three this year...he appears to be the same size as your guy but is not showing the male tail development yours is.
I had to go check on my 3 year old male after making that post. He just shed in the last hour so I gave him an examination...he is starting to show the signs but not as much as your stud.

That boa is incredible and looks in perfect health.
Unfortunately, your post and a recent feeding video my friend Bryan sent me has me wanting "one last snake".
It isn't in the foreseeable future but I'm plenty fine looking at this one and dreaming.
