Average size for Male Burms

Every book, every site always says "THEY CAN GET TO 20 FEET OR MORE" "FEMALES GET TO 18 FEET OR MORE"

But I never see anything on males.

So what is the average? And I KNOW, I KNOW there is always those who can get bigger or smaller.

Re: Average size for Male Burms

I would say the males get to about 12-16ft. I like to allow about 20ft though just to be safe. As you said, it all depends on the snake so it could top out 10-11ft but you could get the freak that grows to 20. At least if you allow for 20ft, there is a good chance you'll have a smaller snake in a bigger, more spacious cage! I don't own giants though so I could be way off, but thats the way I'll be thinking if 5+ years when I get my burn hopefully.

Re: Average size for Male Burms

I have personally seen a couple legit 16+foot males in my life. The largest male burm I am aware of is just over 20 feet and 225 pounds. I have pics of him that I can send via pm.
