BC what though?? BCI's max out around 8ft for females around 6ft male(average). BCC's can get to 10ft but it is very rare. Keep in mind BCC's also grow much slower than BCI's.....although get larger......funny eh?

A friend of mine has a female BCI that is 9.5' and just about 60 pounds, She is HUGE. I know a few others with 9-10 BCIs.
Having a 10' BCC isn't really that uncommon.

I know a breeder whose female BCI is 11 feet. I'm getting one that is 12 feet (purchase) and possibly another one (adoption) that is 10. Don't kid yourself into thinking that the 10+ foot female BCI are rare. They are not all that uncommon.
