Pueblans get way bigger and thicker in captivity than they usually do in the wild, so most of them grow to about 40-42 inches in captivity.

This one is a year old.

The majority of websites and books state that Pueblans grow 30-36". Peters right, they regularly exceed this in captivity. Also Sinaloans regularly exceed 5 feet, contrary to the 4 feet maximum claimed on many websites i’ve visited.
