    Adults can be managed in a 4x2x1.5 pretty comfortablly. Even just a 4x2x1 but thats bear minimum. If you like AP stick with AP. A 2x2x1 side will suffice him for probably the first 4-5 months. After that it will need to start moving up if you keep it on a pretty stable diet. If you slow grow it though, it can last for quite some time.

    Adult males can range anywhere from 7-10 ft, my 6 year old is right around 9 ft right now and slowly adding inches to his overall length. My Girl who is 11 months old with the same blood mixture (50% mainland, 50% Kalatoa) is 6 ft strong and growing feeding on Medium-Large rats once every 4-8 days. I expect her growth to max around 9-10 just because her parents were on the smaller side.

    Things to keep in mind - slower they are grown, the smaller they will theoretically get. The size of the parents does matter - bigger parents results in bigger snakes. And also the generation of the cross matters. If this is from Travis Kubes, it will be a younger brother to my girl, and should max around 8 ft being a male.

    Cheers,
