totally agree, a friend of mine has an adult male who is 6.5ft and thats about average for a male! females can get a bit bigger towards the 8/9ft mark. I can hold my mates male by myself and im a girl and 5'8 with no muscles!

The 1st picture of the 11.5ft boa belongs to a german and is taken from a german website, the 13ft boa belongs to an american owner. my personal opinion is both snakes have probably been power fed.

yep the guy from Germany has loads of massive snakes with great pics! to be honest the only thing bad to come out of feeding slightly more food than normal is a shortened life span but the BCC in the second pic is 20 years old now which is about right for a BCC and she has a lot more life in her left. so the amount given for that individual snake is obviously spot on!
