Largest Ball Python you own/owned

I got my first BP over a week ago and he's a baby Normal. I can't wait to see him grow big and I was wondering the largest BP some of you guys have? Any 6 footers?

No giants here. Just two little babies, who have a long way to go. Not as long as I thought, maybe - these things grow fast!

Edit - oh, and two more little babies on the way. And two others that I'm seriously thinking about... The snakes may not grow nearly as fast as the number of tubs needed!

Two young ones here as well! Boy is almost 400 grams, which I'm excited enough about. Currently in blue and being left alone. Girl is a bit smaller but so easy to handle, not head shy at all or mean. But I too have another on the way here pretty soon, super excited for it! :)

I am not sure about length wise but my biggest would be my 5 year old female normal at 2938g. My largest male would be my two year old kingpin at 1010g.

I have never seen a 6ft BP personally. And your male wont get any larger then 4ft at most. Of course BPs never stop growing their entire lives but their growth drastically slows down around 3-5 years of age.

Her name is Hope. '10 Mojave. The photo is few months old, she was around 4000g at that time. Currently she's 4450g and 5.3 feet (162 cm).

So females get bigger?

Edit: generally bigger than males I mean.

A 4000 grams het pued

A 3500 grams Pied

A 3300 grams Enchi Het Pied

The first girl produced the other 2

Females get much bigger then males.

My largest is my 2010 albino girl, Phoebe -- 2795 grams, coming off about a four month fast. 3kg in March. I'd guestimate her length at a little over four and a half feet.

This photo is terrible, I know. I swear, she isn't a headless snake.

she looks great. Awesome snake.

I have a male that is slightly over 3000g and a female the same size as my largest snakes. I don't know how long they are but they're quite large.

My biggest girl weighs a little over 3000g and is pushing 12 years old

There was a ad on kingsnake for a 6000g female. Had a different name though. Like goliath line or something like that.

If it was the ad I saw, I think it was Bertha line. I've also seen something about Sub-Saharan or Volta. Outback Reptiles has a female on their site, a wild-caught that's 4,350g, which they call a Volta. There are four others that they have posted, ranging down to 3,400g, all termed 'Volta'.

I've seen a lot of "Volta" females through outback on facebook. They're huge!

Mine's a 7 year old Spider female tipping the scales these days at 3700+ grams.

I believe it was bertha line. Wasn't outback, was a guy.

My male is 2300ish grams and around as long as I am tall (I'm 5'2").

Thanks! I'm proud of that big girl. That photo taken empty, 45 days ago. Since that she gained around 100g.

This dork is my 2200 gram male. Got him last February as a rescue type situation and he doubled his weight in under a year!

I only have one snale and she's around 780 grams. When I got her her gw was guessed to be 6 months by the vendor, so she should be around 19 months? She refused meals often last year and I only just was able to transition her to rats.
