    Still hungry ?
    Hi guys , quick question , I have a female bp who's 10 ish months old , she's weighing in at arround 700 grams , switched to f/t rats a couple of weeks ago , last night ( and last week end ) she took a small f/t rat around 70 grams and after feeding she's still looking for more , I'm sure if I offer another she will take it but I don't want to over feed her , her set up is a exo terra viv and temps , humidity are all good at 91h 79c and 50ish % , measured with an accurite , thanks in advance Jamie ...

    My pied girl will do the same thing and if offered would definatley eat again she is a pig but should you feed her more. In my opnion no a 70gram ish rat once every 7 days should be more than enough or your average adult Ball Python. WIll they still hunt and look for more food? Yes they are oppertunistic eaters and can usually still smell prey after they have eaten does not mean we should feed them more :)
