Snakes never stop growing but do slow down considerably as they get older, adult size around 2.5m..

Mines 2.5yrs old and not even 2meters

2.5m for an MD?? That would be a monster

what would your estimation of a fully grown MD be?

I reckon 2.5 would be right once you get 10 years plus, generally they will slow down stop shedding maybe 2-4 times a year and stop breeding or not produce the same amount of animals. These animal mainly do well in captivity where food is giving to them, in the wild the rate of snakes over 10 would be low although there are monsters out there that strive in the wild.

It's my understanding that they are generally regarded as the smallest Morelia spilota ssp, topping out around 5-6'. Not saying you're wrong, I just think it's rare

I thought it was roughly 2m give or take depending on sex and individual specimen?

Cheyneis are smaller though yeah? Maybe like 1.8 maybe less I dunno

Mine's (the good feeder out of the two) already at around 4 foot and only 13 (and one week) months old. The mum I got them off was 13 years old and 9 feet in length.
