    Re: How Often Does Everyone Feed?
    I actually feed based off of attitude and how much the snakes want to eat, I use vyper software and i have set a scedual for each individual which range from every 4 days to every 12 days, so it really all depends on a personal experiance and opinion.

    I have all adults - smallest one is 1200g. Every week is the easiest way to remember the schedule. So, if my husband is doing the feeding they get fed on friday night. But, the kids go by their calendar stuck to the wall, so if they are doing the feeding they get fed every 10 days because the kids insist that that's the "proper" feeding schedule. Buncha know-it-alls.

    Every 7 days for the adults, I have a few 2000 plus females that will take every 12 to 14 but they take some big rats. I have 4 that are on mice, the male butter and lemonblast are in the 500 gram range and I offer 2 a week as the mice are usaully around 25 grams. My 07 male pastel also takes mice and eats like a garbage disposal and would probably eat everyday if I let him, he is my best eater just weighed him tonight at 926. The other mouse eater is my 08 female pastel, she is just under 1100. she typically takes one every 2 to 3 days.

    Also I have noticed that if I start feeding too often or too large their stools will be a bit runny, and if this happens I adjust accordingly.
