Are there any corn snakes that are larger than the others?

Not really.

I believe some people have said in general miami's are smaller, but this is in general and doesn't apply all the time. Most reach four feet at least, while a few reach 6 feet or close to it.

I would have to concur that Miamis are smaller. Our adult female is at least partially Miami (She may be a miami x normal, we don't know), and she is pretty tiny - maybe a hair over 4 feet, and SLENDER. She eats like a pig, and doesn't gain a gram.

Our adult males are big boys though - 5'3" and 5'6". The bigger male has also got a girth on him that drwarfs any corn I have ever seen.

I have a 9 year old cornsnake that must be reaching the 6 feet barrier if he didn't cross it. The biggest thing I saw in a cornsnake yet. Very wide too. Will post a pic of it. It's a "normal"

See? always a exception to the "rule" hehehehe. I know of a few people with big miamis so even that is not a corn thats always small.

But I must agree, it seems all the "giants" out there are normals. Although my biggest corn is a male Amel who is around 55 inches almost now. My snow is also over 50. Both are under 3-4 years old so I am thinking at least one of these bad boys will be a 6 footer. hahaha

I got a blizzard off of Kathy Love, and she said that they tend to be smaller like the miami phase. Anyone have any experience with adult blizzards? Mine is only a couple of months old, but is growing like wild fire.

I have a five year old female blizzard. She's pretty darn small. Just beginning to thicken up. I peg her a little over three feet.
