I would like to know roughly how long it would take for it to be fully grown and how big its girth would be. |

Murrays tend to grow short but bulky. It all depends on how much you feed them to how fast they will grow. My male is around 8 yrs old and not quite as thick as a cricket ball and around the 2m mark. Female is around 9yrs old the same length but a little bit thicker but I feed her a lot more than the male.
Good luck with your snake. |
