    Breeding for size?

    Hello All, I have recently been wondering about any known breeders who breed for size rather than color morphs. I don't believe in power feeding due to the adverse effects on the animal's health and I understand how the largest determination for size of the animal is genetics. That being said I know several people are interested in owning monster sized ball pythons, so my question is there any breeder currently out there that's catering to this market? Ive never wanted to get into breeding for financial gain but the possibility of breeding animals of above average size (length and weight) I find intriguing. Any direction as to breeders who have tried this or any knowledge of it being done previously Id appreciate. Thanks in advance.

    I'm not sure of any specific breeders, but I occasionally see Volta females on facebook that are particularly large.
