They usually get about 4 inches, however I have seen one that was about 6-7 inches once, which was really freakishly massive considering it was not only the longest one I’ve seen, but it was wide too and just looked like a giant compared to all of the other ones.
Do you already know about crayfish care or have any other questions?

You might want to get it a larger tank when it grows, I keep mine in a ten gallon, and you can’t have any other animals in there with it except for food, I’d advise against live food like snails especially and frogs just because they might have other parasites that can harm the crayfish, and I feel really bad for the frog 
They’ll eat frozen blood worms, shrimp pellets, algae disks, fish food, and really anything you give them.

he seems to do fine with the minnows i have in there, he just shed or whatever you call it and he ate that. i think he ate a cellery chunk i put in there too. im tryin not to buy food for him, just give him what i get free from work like baby snails, minnows and veggies

Whatever works for you, the shed is a good sign.
