Adult Male Burm Size?

[KevinK]

15 feet is the upper end of average for a male mainland Burm - NOT the absolute maximum size. Please do more research - and do not just trust one source for your information.

Still a 18 foot male Burm - is basically like a 7+ foot man - in that both are considered exceptionally large individuals for their species. But still very much possible.

It is often reported that as a species Burmese pythons don't exceed 19 to 20 feet in length. Those are based on the known "confirmed" reports of the largest known specimens kept in captivity (usually Zoos). However there are some "unconfirmed" reports of Burms which are about 23+ feet in length, and weighing more than 400 lbs.

An 18ft male burm is not like a 7ft man, it's like a 9ft cornsnake. Still, Ill wait for pictures as I don't know of one that exists and in my opinion it doesn't (it's like you said; an unconfirmed report). Just calling it like it is. Ive been doing this for a while my friend, I don't have one source. Been working with a well known breeder that handles 500+ retics and burms as of late changing cages for him in exchange for tattoos and he seems to agree when I brought this up last night as well.
