JB is referring to BCCs in his blog. I would say that once a month for adult BCCs can be perfectly fine. And Gio is correct - the situation described by JB is not what I consider "normal circumstances". By the way, part of the reason I stated what I did is because I've already read JB's blog on the subject (a couple of times as a matter of fact) and from several discussions I've had with him personally and with Gus Rentfro too. I may not have chosen my words well earlier. :gj:
The important thing to remember is that every snake is different. I do feel that "normally" once a month is not often enough for a BCI. But there are times when it is. If your snake is healthy and strong, is not nervous or always acting hungry, has a nice loaf shape to it's body, does not regurge and is shedding well, then you are feeding well!!
