well, i'll post a picture as soon as i put a huge copyright thing on it as is suggested in the other forum area. however, i'm pretty sure that's his correct age as i asked the guy i purchased it from...Ben Siegel Reptiles.

[img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img] alas, that poor snake i'm sure wasn't having a lot of fun with that stupid, stupid woman you've got in the picture. animal abuse...tssssssssssssssssssssssk.

2 and 1/2 ' feet seems very small for even a male. I know BCCs grow slower than BCIs but that seems very small. Not sure if that is typical of Guyanans. My baby male BCi is that big and I know he is 7 months. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

BCC do grow much slower than BCI however they will get bigger then the BCI.
So I would not worry about your BCC. All of my boas eat 1 rat every 12 to 14 days.

This is my 1999 female Guyana she is just over 6'


This is my 1997 male Guyana he is just about 7'


This is my 1998 male Suriname he is about 5 1/2' long.

beautiful snakes Tom, thanks! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] yes, i knew that BCC grew much more slowly which is why i had asked about people specifically owning BCC as opposed to BCI and even more helpfully, Guyana.

let me ask you this...in your experience, how large does an average male Guyana BCC get? what kind of growth rate should i expect? he looks just beautiful and absolutely healthy and active. i got him from Ben Siegel. nice animal. thanks!

I just got a W/C baby Guyanan.She is 30" long not sure how old,but she is gorgeous.She looks exactly like a classic Surinam,Which goes to show Boas don't pay attention to man made borders.She is a real sweatheart,still a little skiddish.

How large do Guyanan Boas get? I'd like to get one, but I prefer smaller boas.

I may buy a Dumeril's instead, but I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Thanks
