Hey guys here's my female inland carpet she's 2 years old, 2kg, and 6ft long just wondering if she's too small.

hey mate,

nice snake looks very healthy with good body condition. i wouldnt say its to small at all our MDs are between 4-6 years we have a 6ft, 7ft and an 8ft.they normally grow to 6-9 feet i would say yours is fine.
 
I can't comment specifically on inland weights and sizes as I've never kept them but every snake grows at a different rate, depending on a number of factors, there are therefore no clear cut answers. IMO as long as you are giving an appropriate sized prey item fortnightly and the snake is shedding every few months I think the snake is fine. She looks great from the photos too

Way undersized, if you like I could look after it for a while and fatten it up for you;)
