Please Give Me Your Opinion.

I fed my bp who is 110 grams, a 20 gram hopper last friday. He has been hunting for the last three days and I was planning on giving him another 20 gram hopper tomorrow. (5 days interval) Is this too much? He sits in his tree in a very identifiable strike position right above where i feed him.

feed him! And stop reading books and FAQ( AKA FAKE) PAGES.. Little dude is starving..

haha thank you thats all I really wanted to know. The hoppers are quite large compared to him so I was a little concerned. He would eat 2 20 gram hoppers in a row if I offered but I thought that was too much.

Our little guy who goes 136 grams slammed down two mouse hoppers no problem in quick succession tonight. He had the second in a choke hold before we even got the tub closed! :gj:

awesome! Ill get my little guy on rat pups soon:)

Two mouse hoppers? Man you need to bump them up also.. My snakes hit 200g I put them on small rats.. Not saying you have to . But maybe try a Full grown mouse..

Talk about under feeding :O My gang start on rat pups and move up from there!

The hoppers are already thicker than his widest girth. I don't think he could gulp down much more than the ones he has. In the last week he has gone from 80 grams to 110 grams so i don't want to push it. He also just got off 1 month of meds for mouth rot. Should I really feed him half his weight in food, thats what bumping him up any more would be.

just think of it this way if its not bigger than five times the size of his head he can eat it

Dinner time:) I am convinced he thinks he's a tree boa.
