Large irian Jaya!

Size of the IJ.

I read this post from Gonesnakee on another forum.

I'm posting it here for some insight.

Some feel IJ's can and do get large.

Males of certain species of carpet are larger than females in the wild because they participate in pre-mating combat.

Read this thread.

See what you think.

Sounds like someone is feeding very regularly. I listened to a Morelia Python Radio show with Nick Mutton the other day and he was talking about bredli which are supposedly large members of the morelia family. He said something along the lines of snakes will grow according to how much they're fed i.e. if fed just enough they will maintain health, if fed more heavily they'll put the energy in to growth.

I've only had two adult IJs and both have got to about 5.5 feet. My male is 9 years old.
