Think about it, longer snakes are going to have a greater distance between their "poop shoot" (Lol, awesome name for it) and the tip of their tale. Diet can greatly effect the body size of a snake. While I've heard this before, I don't think its reliable at all. Either find a professional breeder that can show you how to probe or pop or learn. I recommend you find someone who can show you.
