How old is my BP?

Hello, I recently got a ball python from an expo but I can’t figure the age of it. I know he’s young but he’s about 2 feet and about 6 inches in girth. Oh yeah and he’s also a male. Thanks!

No way to tell except by asking when you buy them. I know a 8 month BP that's 18 inches & my 5 month old is 31". Depends on how it was fed.

The only way to tell for sure is to cut him in half and count the rings.
