Size comparison for my female SURI

Here's my girl 6 months ago on my FULL sized bed(one size smaller than a queen sized bed.)
Here she is 6 months latter while cage cleaning.

Nice looking girl you have there, how much do you think she has grown in 6 months? How old is she now? Just out of curiosity.

Hey Jody,I not sure if she got longer,maybe a few inches.However I think she did fill out.A lot of people talk about GIANT boa's (12 ft and up)I think she may very well be one of those giants.The reason why I believe that is because,You see alot of 7 footers out there on the net and they are FILLED out with really MEATY HEADS.fOR A 7 ft snake her head still looks normal and won't fill out till she hits the 10 ft mark.I really don't know how old she is since she is W.C.If I had to guess,I think she is at least 5/6 years old.

If shes 5/6 yrs old I dont see her getting much larger really.

When I owned a BCI. She was about 1yr and 3 months...and just about 5ft. SHE...was big.

BOIDSUNLIMITED-
I'll have to agree AND disagree with you. I agree that if it's 5-6 years old, it probably won't get much bigger. At the same time I'll have to disagree with you though. You are comparing a BCI to a BCC. BCI's grow MUCH faster than the slow-growing BCC's. Just my $0.02.
(and I'm not trying to turn this thread into an arguement like all the other threads on this site turn into, it's just my opinion, and it may not be the same opinion as yours or the next guy that comes along)

JODY-
Just felt like calling you that too! : P

I always thought boa's grow all there life.Alot of the 10 footers out there are at least 9/10 yr old females.It is a well known fact that B.C.C. grow almost half as fast as B.C.I. AT 4/ 5 yrs old a B.C.C has just matured to adulthood.I guess it is just WISHFULL thinking that I might have one of the MONSTER SURI'S. LOL,sorry GREENMAN,I always thought your first name was Jody.
