She's probably going to be 4'-5' at least by the time she turns 1, and my BCI was only 2.5' at a year old. So they have an insane growth rate. I just suggest getting help when it's full grown, like 1-3 people to help you with any task you may do with your giant for a safety measure. Feeding, watering, handling. Also because these guys can be difficult to handle alone.
If you're not power feeding it you can definitely grow with your snake.
