is he the rite size

hi
i just picked up a new ball python the other day, and the girl said he was about 2 years old maybe a little older , he's only about 42" or 3'6" in length and about 6 1/2" in girth, i was just wondering if this is a normal size for his age .

Sound like the length is okay, but a 6 inch girth? is that diameter or 6 inch circumfrance. If the latter, seems good to me imo. 4-5 ft is about full growth depending on feeding schedual and many snakes do most of their growing in the first 18-24 months. Everyone loves pictures =D bit easier to tell if you take one with something to compare to.

no 6 1/2" circumfrance lol

He seems pretty good to me, a big boy but he also 2 years old. He will most likely get a bit bigger for another year but not much. good luck with him ;)
