Its hard to tell because they grow at differant speeds. If you tell us the weight, length and a pic we will have a good guess for you.

just as an example i've got 3 CB07s one is well over 3ft, another is around 3ft and the other is just under. how fast they grow can depend on how well they're fed. the smaller two were on maintenance diets for longer (before i got them) than the bigger one. maintenance diets are for survival not growth.

Laaaaarge variation depending on whether your snake has ever been on a maintenance diet.

that's really strange. as mine are about 9 grams but have had them 2 years. i think they mightv'e been on maintain diet.. :(

No wonder they were a tad thin when i got them but they're okay now can't see their spine and ribs :/
