Anyone else, im interested in this issue?

I really don't think your going to get any great stats off this.....size and growth all depends on husbandry and feeding.

[pollywog]

My two burms grew as follows;

Female Albino - 7.5 feet in one year.
Male Granite - 6.25 feet in one year.

pollywog could you maybe take some pix of your granite I would love to see a large Granite :medcomcic

I have a albino thats 4 months 4.3 feet (not sure on sex yet)

I got my males at 8 feet and my females at 10 in one year but I had to keep them on their diet. I never missed a meal and I uped the prey size every feeding so I paid close attention to their food.

My good friend has a year old normal coloured labrith and he is 7 and a half feet I think he was hatched last May, Very heavy. I have a 5 month old albino I'm taking care of for friend whos on vacation for a month and hes just under 4 feet but thin.

[pollywog]

Here is my year-old granite burm. He is now just under 7 feet.

pollywog, that is a amazing granite!

Looking at these figures, it kind of goes against the "myth" that recent morphs and variations all have slower growth than regular burms.
Anyway, my biggest burm was almost 9 feet in her first year. She died very young, at 5 and a half years old. She was over 21 feet then. I still keep the skin.
