Re: growth

Snakes keep growing till the day they die, if I'm not mistaken.

Re: growth

Really?? So it takes a BP 25 yrs to reach 4-6'?? That seems astronomical!!

Re: growth

Snakes grow in girth their entire life but not sure on length. Also don't attribute shedding to growing cause that isn't always the case.

This, their length keeps growing but super slow, and their girth generally increases. I had only 1 BP that I personally owned, it was a bit over 6 feet.
