 Question for Python Length

I have a female burmese python that is 2 years old and 5 ft 4 in. Is this small? How big do you think she will get?

Well I would say yes my burm is male 6 months and 4 feet and I have read lots that that your length and age would be concidered small.

I agree with rickyael on the length... my burm is around 3 years old, to the best of my knowledge, and she’s 8’.. you can expect your female burm to get around 14-18 feet, on average, but they never quit growing completely and 20’+ isn’t uncommon...

I thought she was pretty small. The guy I got her from wasn’t feeding her near enough (1 small mouse every 7 days). As soon as I got her I bumped her up to 1 medium rat every 10 days and she seems to be gaining weight and feeling better.

good job.. you may want to bump it up again.. I was feeding mine 2-3 jumbo rats bi-weekly until I switched to rabbits (frozen/thawed)... she’s been eating jumbo rabbits for about 3 months now (bi-weekly, unless she’s in shed) and doing great.. it’s cheaper that way, even with the cost of shipping..
