So you already got him? That was quick.

I agree with you Richard, you read lots of claims on size but no specimens to back it up other than the zoo or in the wild. Sittipat had the largest flower I had seen here in the states, it was a female at 20". I think he said it came in at 10" and took 3 years to get that size.
 
When he settles in get us a pick of his claspers if you can. Will be interested in seeing how big they are at this size. Also, what color substrate was he on? Most flowers his size will of already turned black. Some stay lighter longer but most flowers that have settled in with no stress would of turned black by now.

Yea the guy needed it gone. And I know deals like this need to be jumped on. So after 3 weeks of letting him find another buyer, he contacted me yesterday and the price was finally right so today was the day. He is awesome...... WOW

The thing is Mike a lot is to do with diet. Flowers are notorious for been difficult to get onto certain foods especially when juvenile, if they are stuck on just a couple of food items then I am sure this will hold them back, I am waiting to hear from Sam, his grew massively over an 18 month spell, just wondering what it ate, my guess is quality pellet foods as well as the usual.
It would be good to find out if your friend Sittipats Flower grew even larger or if it stayed at that size? Can you find out if he still has it? would be interesting to know.
