Which subspecies? There are many different kinds.

Irian Jayas are the smallest, wich males growing to about 4-5 feet on average and females around 5-6 feet on average. I have seen a 7+ foot long pure (in fact, I believe it was WC) Irian Jaya in person, but that's far outside the norm.

Jungles usually end up about one foot longer than Irian Jayas and proportionally thicker in girth.

Coastals, which have an extremely wide natural range, will vary immensely. Males range from 5-9 feet and females are from from 6-12 feet.
