She should get up to around six or seven feet long. They have very powerful jaws that do not unhinge. Though, I've not heard of them biting for defense. I think their best defense is to slither away.

Unhinging jaws are an old wives' tale, the lower jaw is connected in front by a ligament that stretches.

Some snakes just aren't as stretchy as others. Might could have something to do with more strongly developed jaw muscles for overpowering their prey or maybe they've just evolved closer towards their preferred prey items to the point where they're more tightly niched.

Very awesome!! Indigos are are my own wishlist - working on the permit in the spring! Yours is a red-throat isn't she? Totally amazing snakes............

Yes, she is a red throat. I like them better than the blacks because their eyes show up better and you can see where they are looking. As much patience as breeding ball pythons has taught me, I'm still having a hard time just leaving her alone so she can acclimate. I want to play with her, but will wait until she is eating. I can't wait until she starts eating and getting bigger.
My wife and I do educational sessions at the local middle school, where we cover a lot of the topics that are covered through the year (genetics, prey/predator, conservation, etc.). We are very excited to introduce the next 300 students we teach to North America's largest and coolest snake. Hopefully, she will help educate some kids that there are some really cool reptiles out there and we all need to do what we can to preserve them.
