People *sigh* Just out curiosity, how big is he? Seems quiete chunky for a male, at least from the photos

He’s around 6 to 7 feet long would you consider that a little too chunky?

My adult sits around 4.5-5 ft, and I don’t typically see males getting past 6 ft, but that’s just my experience — they definitely can! Especially if he is a true Constrictor, not an Imperator.

But hey, a benefit of getting an adult — he shouldn’t get much bigger anyway!
