gotta say mate totally agree with you . i think that people are slowly movin g towards the smaller [not dwarf] burms nowa days. i still beleive IMO that greens dont grow as big as other burms too. i think over feeding will aways be a problem with burms but the majority feed sparingly now as rule. iv got a granite female thats only 6ft or so foot and over 5 years old! cant wait to see what all the breeding of the small [not dwarf] burms is going to produce!!!

EDIT* i like my burm the way hes growing etc ,hes solid muscle not flabby and very strong ,his condition is great i dont think a burm willl hit 6-8ft in the first year in the wild so dont see why they need to be pushed that far in captivity people seem to think big adult size so need more food but IMO thats so wrong ,i just feed on instinct he feeds every 2 weeks on 1 giant rat and is growing nicely ,no overweightness just nice solid snake

good to hear your happy with him as hes a very good xsample of an albino green male. iv seen him for ages now and have always thought so.  you should think about getting him a friend
