Does anyone know the approximate size of a male ball python at different ages?

Question

Like - how big should he be at 1 year, 2 years, 3, years etc... at what age should he be fully grown?

Answer 1

The average male may range from 2 to 3 feet when full grown.

They grow within the first 2 years. After that they are pretty much full grown.

Answer 2

I have 2 ball pythons both approx the same age of 1yr the female is 2ft and the male is 1 and a 1/2ft. previously I had a 2yr old male who was 3ft. the females are generally larger than the males and grow to a max of 6ft whereas males grow to around 5ft.

Answer 3

I beleve they grow 1 foot each year untill they reach the max size of 4 foot then they just get fatter.

Answer 4

It would depend on their diet and living conditions.

Answer 5

Growth rate depends on the amount fed - for example an animal who has been fed weekly will be smaller than one of the same age but that has been fed every 5 days etc.

Most should be fully grown at about 3 years old, but keep in mind they never really stop growing, its just much much slower past this age.

Hope this helps.
