Hey guys....as most of you know I have a labyrinth burm....WELL I know the size greatly depends on the parents' size....but what is the average size of a male burm at 1 year?

How big is/was your burm at one year?

My guy is 5ft and 9 months old so he has 3 months to grow:)

Zeus was a little over 10' by his first year, Nejean was probably bigger, but i didn't have him at that time.

It all depends on how you feed him as well...how many times a week do you feed him? and what size prey item?

Depending on his gerth. If your about to move to rabbits..he may be able to handle 2 jumbo rats easily.

hey Snakeman...

Just to give you an idea..my buddy I lived with had a 8 footer and she would eat 5-6 jumbo rats at a setting til we finally switched her over...
