Ok so been reading up about these....apparantly they can grow to 7FT!!! 
Oscar is part Grey Rat Snake (must be somewhere along the line, he's a Gold Dust Motley)
I assume he won't be much bigger than 5ft fully grown? Or rather, i hope haha! Or i'll have to go and purchase a bigger viv soon lol. |

7 feet would be an exceptional maximum and not the average. I have a Grey Rat Snake and he is around 4'3". I wouldn't expect him to get much bigger than this, maybe another couple of inches over the next few years. I don't think a hybrid Rat x Corn would vary much from a standard size Corn and max out at between 4 -> 5 feet. Although there are always those that don't read the rules. 
Get the camera clicking once he's settled in.

I love and hate going there  so many temptations and I can't always resist (did manage to resist the lovely hypo bloodred stripe when I went last weekend) |
