What is the general length/size of tokays, and do males or females generally get bigger? Maybe post some pics of some full-growns please.

Tokays get to be about 12-15 inches. I believe that males are bigger than females but I could be wrong...

I agree with Brian 12 to 15 inches is about the norm for full grown adults. The males are usually slightly longer and heavier then the females. The males head is considerably larger than the females. The most dependable method of correctly sexing them is to check for the presence or absence of waxy build up on their pre-anal pores. I’m posting a couple of adult pictures here but if you visit this sites Tokay photo gallery you will find some extremely large adult pictures.
