I think that the average size is around 6 - 8foot but I wouldn't quote me on this. Maybe someone on here will be able to help you out

it all varies on how much and how often the snake gets fed. no one can pin point a exact measurement for snakes.

I have an adult pr,both around 6-7years old and they are 8 ft, very solid and still growing slowly.....snakes never stop growing they just slow down with age and your feeding rate should slow with age also.
