I've been wondering about this as I often see people advertising a corn for sale thats like 2-3 years old and between 2 1/2 to 3ft in length and just about in triple figures weight wise.

I have 2 corns that are 13 months old. One weighs in at 192g and measures 3ft and the other weighs in at 212g and measures 3ft 1". They both shed every 4-6 weeks. Is their growth rate going to slow down soon or are they just destined to be large corns?

if they're huge as juveniles you often find they have tiny heads in comparison to their bodies......with a bit of a diet they usually grow into their head though lol
