Mine is only 6 months and six feet, i may be feeding too much.

@OblivionIce listen dont think all snakes will grow the same because they wont. mines is a male who grew at an average rate. yours probably has genetics that are on the larger side. if you're snake looks healthy than he is. period. i dont care how big or small. if he/she is at that perfect weight you have nothing to worry about. if its fat then you're feeding it too much. also note when you have a male and female of the same size the female will always be fatter.

Does it ever strike you?

[drepop803]

@t3hfiasc0 nope. only when hungry he'll strike hoping im food. snakes bite first ask questions later. give them that respect and you wont have it choking you to death.

[drepop803]

@brit0147 thats actually an average size. theres another youtuber who had a 9ft female yearling.

thanks for the advice, I decided to start with a ball python instead to get started.

@mrwilliamsway11 Don't get a Burmese python for your first snake. You'll be one of those people that tries to get rid of it through an animal shelter when it's too big for you to take care of.

@mrwilliamsway11 this is an average size for a yearling burmese python male or female. he was being fed rats once a week up until he was about 7feet. i put him on bunnies after that. bunnies are expensive. rodent pro seems to be the only company selling frozen rabbits online and they're expensive. i spent $150 just for four 10pound rabbits. if you can find a bunny seller at an expo it'll be waaay cheaper.
