Growth rates of Bredli

I am interested in the growth rates of Bredli, as I have read that they grow somewhat slower than other carpet pythons. Is this true?

I have an 8 month old Bredli who is about 80cm. Is this size normal for a snake of this age?

Cheers in advance.

If this is an indication, 1 of our female Bredli is just on 6ft and she will be turning 2 in Jan. She has not been pump fed with only a female adult rat 10 to 14 days. She started in a click click and getting a feed every 5 days in an appropriate size and the feed size grew as she did. Then up graded to the click clack with the lid off in a 6x2x2ft unit and has lived there since minus the click clack. Quite happily might I add.
So I would have to say no to slower growth, imo.
