    How long would a BP get at 2 years of age?

    My female BP is currently 2 ft. 10 in. the last time I measured her, which was about a week ago or so. I now feed her 1 small rat weekly every Thursday, which seems to fill her up. She's either 4 - 4 1/2 cm. across the thickest part of her body. She is 1 1/2 years old, so in 6 months how long do you think she will get? Of course, I will be upgrading meals as she grows.

    Patience. Give it a little more than 20 minutes.

    As for your question. It all depends on her feeding. She could go off feed for a couple of months. I have a few animals that are from the same clutch and have a weight difference of about 400 grams between siblings. Some just grow quicker than others.

    Candice does seem to be one of those fast growers. Two months ago she was 2 ft. 9 in. and I measured her a week or so ago and she was 2 ft. 10 in. I remember she was so small when I got her, maybe at least a foot long and a few inches, and now she's really thick and long. She also have not ever refused any meals for me, which is one of the things I love about her xD

    Re: How long would a BP get at 2 years of age?

    My male normal ball python is currently 2.5 years and he is 49" long. Eats a latge rat every 10 days. All balls are different though, as he could be shorter but he would then be thicker and more bulky, my guy Bob is longer but pretty slender. Maybe up the feeding, but as long as she is of normal thickness i wouldnt worry.

    Forgot to mention something, my male Bob was a good 3'6" at 2 years. All depends on the feeding. Females outgrow males and balls mostly max out at 6 or so feet. a 7 footer would be a good sized senior
