Retic locality sizes

[Big Jamie]

Hi everyone, can someone please tell me how big bali yellow head retics get? I heard that they're a bit smaller than others but lots of people don't consider them dwarfs because they do get pretty big. Apparently... Also, adding other info on other localities with what's the biggest and smallest and ofcourse pics would be appreciated. Does anyone else get confused with all this locality talk? I kind of got the hang of some it, eg Makassar's an island of Sulawessi so that's why the two localities look very similar (one's darker than the other). Am I right? All I know is if you get a retic, especially a female, expect a snake about 17-20'. I've been searching the web for a while and still no answer to HOW BIG DO BALI YELLOW HEADS GET?
Hopefully whenever I, or someone else, need specific info on localities this thread can be opened.

Thanks in advance, Jamie

makassar is actually a port on sulawesi thats why they look the same.
id expect true bali yellowheads to reach around 11-14 foot although some have been bigger but they are generaly smaller than full size mainlands.

yep localities get very confusing and even more so when they've been crossed with others, on regards to the bali's... i'd say 14ft at most for a female. 10 for a male.

heres my 2....

feeding and genectics are a factor most balis can get 10-14ft. with males being generally smaller there defiantly not dwarfs . the largest locale seems to be the javan and smallest being the honey island. yes locals can be very confusing.

so with Bali's is it better to get WC ?so you know they are true bali's or find a reliable breeder?

You seem like the man to ask, what size to Kayuadis average full grown, I've read lots of different things, It seems to be somewhere around 7 - 11 feet, is this about right?

i would say that's quite accurate. the ones ino of where around 7-8ft long. thing with dwarfs i would always plan for a larger snake just incase

i will say that my girls are on the larger end of the spectrum though

as has been said already, with a dwarf or mainland, always be prepared for a bigger example, just in case.

i would say makassars are the biger locale than the javan
