Hi Don,
These are such great snakes! I have a pair of them that are CB 98, and I really like them. How long do they get? I don't know for sure. My female shed recently and the shed was a little more than 9 feet, so the animal, allowing for 20% stretch of the shed, is around 7'. She is larger than her mate, and I don't know what your experience has been, but she is a much better feeder than he is. (I think Schulz also makes a note that the females tend to be bigger eaters than the males.)
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for mine - they have been copulating the last few weeks.
You noted in reply to Terry Cox that your stock came from Mike Humphrey - I have found Mike Humphrey and Terry Cox both very helpful with questions and generous with their time, 2 more guys who are real assets to this great hobby.

: I have a pair of 99 taiwans and this guy is much bigger than either of them. He's 5.5' plus although you'd never guess that if you saw him coiled up. How long can these get?
