I have the chance to get a 5-6 y/o female red tail. She is currently 5' long the owner told me she has been a real slow grower and suspects that is to prior bad care before she got it. When hse picked her up years back she was in real bad shape but is it top nothc shape now. Her best guess is the snake wont get over 8' long due to the poor care it recieved before. I tend to think this will be a small snake her entire life based on that my friend has 2 red tails both 2 y/o that are male and already over 5' long and not power fed. Could poor care have stunted this snakes growth.

Also if I get her she will have to live in a 30 breader til december will she be fine like that If i take her out daily to stretch and get a workout. ?
