growth???

trick question

Corn snakes basically grow their entire life.
Of course their growth rate slows down considerably the older they get.
How long does it take to get to "adult" size or breeding size.
Well, that can be 2 to 3 years.
I think a general weight is something like 300 grams for females and 250 grams for males for breeding.
I think length wise I would say 33 to 36 inches "plus" would be safe.
nothing in stone here just generalities.
 
Six feet was the longest corn snake on record (to my understanding), but most will grow between 3-5 feet, and will take 4-7 years for them to reach this length. It makes sense that they continue to grow, but from what I've read, they can live 15-20 years, so if in 5 years they're 5 feet long, they can't possibly grow much longer in the next 10 (if that makes sense).

Mine is 3-4 months old and is just over 20 inches. Maybe 21" (was hatched at around 15"). You sure about that size/age there, seawin? lol
