    Age to maturity?

    I just realized that today I've had my miss Kitty for a year now. In that year she's gone from 120g to about 900g. From curling up in my palm to 3' thick thing. And still calm as can be. More shy than aggressive, she would rather back away and hide than to get aggressive and strike.

    But it got me to wondering. On average of yhey eat well, how many years does it take for them to reach their mature size. Right now she is just over 2 pounds and a bit over a year old, if she was only a few weeks to a month or so old when I got her.

    Thanks,

    Kyle

    It is my understanding that they reach maturity at 3 years old... Mine are all growing like crazy, too. It's amazing how fast these guys grow!

    They can hit adult length at three but there's a big difference between a 3 year old and say a 5 year old
