    Feeding Question

    My Pastel BP is currently 4 months old, she has been eating hoppers every week. My question is, when do I stop feeding my snake weekly and start feeding her about every 10 days. I am asking this because I don't want to offer her food to frequently and trigger the famous fasting period.

    Damian, I do not think your Pastel will fast just because you feed her once a week. They usually fast during a breeding season, so even if you cut down on how often she is fed, she still may fast. I would still feed her once a week for now since she is still growing.

    The fast is up to the snake. LoL
    Whats her weight?
    How many hoppers are you feeding per week?
    Mice hoppers would be on the small side considering hatchlings are started on hoppers.
