    My largest is Mel. She's a little over 1400g last time we weighed her on empty. I really don't think she's going to get much bigger than that either, I bought her as a proven breeder and the guy I bought her from said that she's never gotten much over 1600g but has always laid great clutches. She's an 04 I believe CBB and healthy as a horse lol.

    Here's a couple pics of her :gj:

    My largest is just under 3000g (but that is after laying a clutch of 10 eggs) and over 4 ft (at least she was a year and a half ago, I haven't measured her in a while.)

    Our Bertha is 3200gms. She came to us recently and the folks we got her from think she is around 10 years old.


    Your survey left out 3000 - 3500gms..... ;-)

    I've even heard of some getting upwards of 4500-5000g! I know one or two people on here have some in that range, just can't remember off the top of my head who it was :D. Now that would be something I'd like to see a picture of!

    Re: Largest Female In Your Collection
    We have a Female normal named Kylee. We have had her for 1.5 years and I am thinking she is between 5 & 7 but that is pure speculation based on what we were told when we got her. We bought her as part of a collection and the guy got her from a pet store as an owner surrender.

    When we got her she weighed in at 2490 grams. My scale only goes to 2500 so now we weigh her on the big people scale and she weighs 6.6 lbs as of 2 weeks ago and she was 4' 11'' back in June when we mesured her.

    She is a sweet heart.

    Re: Largest Female In Your Collection
    Our biggest girl, Cayenne, is 4300 grams. We have another, Big Bertha, who is right behind her at 4100 grams. Big Bertha (yes I still name all my snakes even though I have over 200) can no longer produce eggs since we had to have her fixed when she became egg bound a couple of years ago. She is still a great pet and one of our very first ball pythons. :)

    Our biggest girl, Tiamat, is 4244 grams and over 5 feet long. :) That's her max weight prior to breeding, and she's already locking up with our lesser. She's a normal.
    With a belly full of eggs, I imagine she could exceed 5000 grams. She lays big clutches of big eggs. (13 last season).

    Re: Largest Female In Your Collection
    It would be interesting to have an additional poll: Are your largest females normal, or morphs? It seems like most people have large normals, but maybe that's just cause they have had them the longest?

    Re: Largest Female In Your Collection
    Yep, we bought Tiamat last year, and she was 3000 + grams then. She's got a wonderful temperment too. We've only had ball pythons for a year and a half now, so we have no morph females anywhere near that size. Fully grown morph females are big bucks, and no one's selling any remotely close to that size range. I have no idea how old she is.

    Here she is:

    I love it! That is an awesome name, and it sounds like her personality belies it. :D She is a gorgeous girl, too.

    Her 13-egg clutch made the name seem pretty appropriate, though. lol (And then 11 of them were pastels...we about fell over. ^_^).

    My biggest girl Olive. She was 3000g before laying a 9 egg clutch and wend down to 1700, she is back up to 2300g, but has a ways to go.

    I think she was around 2500g in this pic. She is a 7 year old smartest of all sweet snakes in the universe contestant.

    PS: For the record, we used to own an art gallery... so we are a bit heavy in the art department... once I have as many snakes as I do paintings, then I will figure the universe has even-keeled finally.

    Hah... it is a good thing there is someone to interpret the question... i thought the question was a joke... as in I was not noticeable due to the art and the hot snake.

    Yes, I was living in a loft until just this month, then I moved to a 7 and a half (we needed a few walls - for a snake and rat room). :)

    0.5 is the bathroom.
