White's take a long time to get that big, at least 2 years or more. They can live to be 25, so they grow very slowly.
My male white's I've had for a long time, is barely 3" long. Females can get up to 4", but it's a slow and steady pace.
I have a female white's and she was 1" when I brought her home in February, she's now only 1 1/2 inches. And she is very well fed.
