Probably only a foot or two more in her lifetime, and maybe 20-30lbs more. It's all dependent on feeding and genetics.

My really big one will be my female retic ;)

they are awesome little guys. look bak through this thread and you will find a few posts with the answers to your questions..

Got my female out for a minute. She has been pretty grumpy but i was able to hold her for a bit tonight. She has a couple of goes at me but never opened her mouth. She just head bumped me. Seems like she is starting to come around a bit. I snagged this shot before she got pretty stressed and i put her back in her enclosure

I grabbed a couple more when i put her back before she went in her hide.

Is she bigger than your male or are these just zoomed in? She looks good.

she is a fair bit larger than he is. i would say length wise they are close. she may be a bit longer. she is quite a bitter bigger around than him though. if i can get her to chill a little bit i intend to get a picture of them together. hopefully i will have one soon. i'll post it up as soon i can make that happen......

I'm also keeping a few species of Elaphe (what the heck is a 'Pantherophis' anyway?) and is it Lampropeltis getula? or Lampropeltis getulus? I know a few people who are adamant that they're keeping 'Chondos' and NOT Morelia viridis...:rolleyes:

What's in a name anyway???

Hahaa...true...good luck removing the name "chondros" from my vocabulary, I'll stop calling them that the day the bp world quits calling it's incomplete dominate morphs "codoms". :gj:

Taxonomy has become a bit of a mixed bag anyways, the whole "pythons lay eggs, boas give birth" rule is slightly out dated...well I don't know of a python that gives birth, but there are several egg laying boas now.

I grabbed a couple shots of my spotted python Olivander http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/20/etysegy4.jpg
