What do you think about this guy. I have a female normal just slightly younger to match in size. I got them last year.

Nice, Im not particularly a burm fan, but nice. Ive had a few, the only thing I really liked about them was they made good displays, and gave me my worst bites.

When will they be breeding?

They're actually up for sale. I got a guy in Nevada who's interested. If not I'll keep them. I run into too many people who just don't follow through.

What do you think about the age? both snakes are about eight feet long. If I do keep them, I think the hardest part will be waiting to see how big the eggs are. There was an article in Reptiles awhile back about how even if a snake is small or a slow grower, they eventually catch up to their proper size. I have been feeding these snakes 2 jumbo rats every other week for almost nine months (with the exception of a three month stint of cooler temps, less food, and dryer air). They could not have grown more than a few inches since I've had them.

Thats really hard to tell...if you power feed a burm from a baby, it can see 7-8ft in a year....or they can see 4-5ft in a year, it varies alot. Is there any way to contact the people you got them from?

my buddy got them from a customer of his over a year ago. The age is definite and according to him he has also been feeding jumbos for some years now. I can understand dwarfism from underfeeding but can it carry into adulthood even if food becomes plentiful and steady. The retic I used to have(and getting back soon I hope) was a two year old female at 5 1/2. A year after I got her she is now ten feet long. She caught up. These burms haven't. at least not yet.

I think that it can, but most-all snakes do catch up. I cant even think of any specific cases offhand of a snake staying small like that...

I think that the age must have something to do with it to. If this guy decides against buying them then I'll be happy to keep them. At least I'm not spending alot on rabbits Lol.
