How Long DO GTP's Get?

Hey everybody, I was wondering if somebody could tell me how long gtps get? I have a a few snakes and I really like the gtps but, I'm not sure if I have the room. How long do they grow up to on average?

Around 4 feet. I've heard they can get up to 7, but it seems to be a pretty rare length.

Re: How Long DO GTP's Get?

Here's a good site on their care requirements: GTP Care

He recommends at least 36" long, by 24" wide and tall. I'd say he knows what he's talking about. My own cage is bigger than this, and taller as well, but it seems like as long as they have the means to move around, and some height, they're okay.

They're very sedentary by day, but mine was surprisingly active at night, and really traveled around his cage. So the more space you can give one, the better.

They also definitely need things to climb on.

Of course the biggest thing about the cage is that it needs to be able to hold in the humidity and heat properly.
