    Biggest Snakes

    Just curious what you're all's biggest snakes are (ball python-wise), please include age, weight, and gender.

    I'll start: 3.5 year old, 1100 g, male
    No cage is too large - nature is the best template - a snoot can't be booped too much

    My biggest is my 9 year old Ball Python male "Jag". 3000+ gr. He is a Pastel Yellowbelly and has always grown bigger and faster then all my others, must be something in his genes...

    He's massive! I love it. I hope that the female I'm planning on getting this year grows to similar size

    Hybrid Angolan?
    He has the same big scales.

    As for my one guy - he has had two feedings. Maybe he is up to 70 grams?

    If you include my past ball pythons, it was my adult female butter who was 2400g when I sold her!

    And the clutch she produced AFTER I sold her with a couple mystery morphs (the almost mystic potiony looking ones)... I still haven't figured out what those are... Bred to my supposedly super lesser.

    Nope...he is all Ball Python. I actually used to own an Angolan Python. She was gorgeous

    I think Jag might have some genes of those larger growing BP's in him.

    2000g for my pastel girl, she's big but a bit slender due to her picky eating habits, but still looks healthy.
