Hello Andras
I would say that 4-5ft would be a more realistic estimate. Not many king species reach more than this.

i have just had a search of the net for you and there is not one thing about a chimoo,are you sure the names right and not just made up by the bloke you bought it from,a picture would help us to identify it. |

Take a look at the care sheets on here
http://www.thekingsnake.co.uk/Sonoran_mountain_king_snakes_care_sheet.html
Mountain kings grow to an average of 4'. Although I have no experience with your paticular subspecies 7' sounds like an exaggeration to me as I don't know of any species of king that will reach 7'.
Welcome to the forum though and I look forward to seeing pics of your snake  |
