Well a dwarf can reach 14' and a mainland can be held at 12'..all down to how you feed. I have Saru on a small weaner rat once a week. Apparently the only time to crank up the feeds is for a female who is close to laying. So a dwarf could be kept quite small :) |

or you could feed it what it actually needs not what to what size you want it to be. This i consider to be cruel not feeding a snake its requirements but folks wanting to kee them manageable and small. these are big snakes you dont want a big snake dont get one |

Although diet DOES play a big part in the growth and final size, most of it will be down to genetics - hence the price tag of dwarf/super dwarves.
I think buying mainland and expecting 12 feet is probably not advised :/
I'd be lucky if this girl only attains 12

yeah i'm feeding mine well, but not power feeding..I expect around 13'- 15' for Saru. Same as my Royals, Slinky moved to rats at a year old. |

Why didnt you just go for a dwarf if you had that size in mind?
I honestly think you will be in for a shock if thats how big you're expecting him to be Janie.
