females always grow bigger then males, I have 3 cape york Coastals my female is 4.5 years got her 3 years ago and she was 1 metre she is now over 9 ft eating 2 large rats a fortnight to a month. the male I bought a month apart from her was same age about 90cm long and is now just 9 ft eating only fresh killed 1 large rat a fortnight to a month he is too 4.5 years old. Last is my new male I bought about 1.5 months ago he is 7 years old and only a lil under 7 ft.

it comes under how much you feed them and how much of a fussy eater they are. if you intend on breeding later try keep your male about 6 - 7 ft and good weight other wise you'll most probably get the same resolt I did for 2 years with my big boy, to big and lazy to do the job.
