if he's 4ft he'll be at least 3-4 years old.......
i bought a yearling last year and had to do a double-take at the hatchdate on the box as it was no bigger than a hatchling! |

I am beginning to think that they might have got his age wrong in which case can anyone suggest how old he might be. |

i'd say he was pure corn and although you know how long you've had him i'd suggest he was older than you thought/were lead to believe when you got him |

Hey Kim, welcome to the forum - certainly looks like a Corn to me, though I'm no expert on cross-bred etc. Very hansom fella he is too. I'm sure one of the other guys will be able to give you a bit more info. |

Hi and welcome.
Do you have any pics you could post on here of your snake? It may help in regards to ascertaining his weight and whether he's a corn crossed with something else. |

I am certain of his age but as I bought him from a pet shop I can't be sure if he's been crossed with something else or not.
I did think he was a bit big for a corn of his age but as he's my first snake I wasn't sure |

my male is 15 months and 2.5ft long, he has 1 large mouse each week ... 4ft at 18 months is extremely large, are you 100% certain of his age |

heya and welcome
4ft at that age is pretty drastic........either his age is wrong or he's not a corn! |

Hi, I'm not sure about the feeding side but 4 feet at 18 months sounds quite big, are you sure about it's age? Sure other more experienced owners will offer good feeding advice for adults. |
