I am asssuming you are referring to a BCC? I have a 4 1/2 ft BCI who is little under two years old... I think he is a male but not sure.. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img] but I am not breeding so it does not really matter..

My BCI is just slightly over 2 years and is 4 3/4 feet long and most likely male.

I have one that is 2 1/2yrs old and is hitting 6ft. The 2 boas I bought from Ronne are just about 26-27in at almost 2yrs. I have another male that is a few yrs old and is about 5ft. It all depends on the snake and how it was fed in the first year.

As long as you are keeping good husbandry, and feeding one prey item every 7 days no bigger then the snakes girth, then it really does not matter. Snakes grow at different rates; that is obvious by the posts already here. You have been given a range of 4.5 feet to 7 feet in only 7 posts!!

I have had 2 baby red tails before, from the same clutch, and there was almost a foot difference between them!! Some have diffferent growth rates than others, some may metabolize better; it depends on the snake.

I think it is too hard to give you an accurate "average" here, unless you allow almost 3 feet for error!!

We've 2 bcis of 13 months old, they've only been fed average 7 days with rodents no larger than girth.
They're both over 5 ft and chunky.
