    He looks great.

    I would not be surprised is he grew another foot.

    Yafe's growth has slowed dramatically. He's been about 1.8kg for a bit now. 1,830g last night after shed and some waste.

    He's a really good size, IMO, and very healthy and happy. That's what I care about.

    He's looking awesome and bright after shed and will eat tomorrow.

    I should HOPE so! :rofl: There's such a thing as "too much of a good thing". ;)

    6-6.5'.

    I think closer to 6.5'. It's hard to tell. He can be wall to wall (side to back) in his tank - so at least 6ft. However, he's usually climbing so longer, but not sure by how much.

    I think Behira (BI) is about his length, but she's much thicker, and weighs 80% more or so.

    So, at least 6ft, but probably between that and 7ft. :).

    To be clear, when I said his growth slowed, I am going by weight. He's been within 5% of his current weight for 6 months now.

    YEP!

    He's looking good! He may have a spurt later in life. I haven't really figured out how the carpets grow. My late girl grew a lot around 6-7 years. My Brissy is starting to put on more size faster at 3 years of age.

    The Bredli didn't eat over the winter and he grew a lot. I think he's 6 years old.

    There are many variables.

    Your snake looks great and that's what counts. Especially after the rough start.

    Man, you aren’t kidding Gio. What a glow up with this critter over its life so far. Way to go David! Yafe looks great! Probably similar size to my Rockhampton Carpet based on your pictures.

    You should see him in person! Photos do not do him justice!
