    Feed?

    Is it harder for you to keep your bigger snakes on feed or smaller or is there a difference at all?
    Thanks!Mike.

    They are definitely all different, the more you have the more likely you will be at some point to run into picky animals.

    When it comes to my collection I would say they eat with consistency most of the year (breeding season is another story)

    Some are real garbage disposals and will eat anything anytime.

    And a few can go on fast for 6 to 9 months without issue.

    It varies, I am just not stressing over it.
