    Re: Do you have strict "feeding days"?
    I feed every Tuesday sometime between 8:30 and 10 pm. He's usually out prowling by Monday night... Mainly because the largest F/T mice at PetSmart aren't quite the same girth as Simon's widest point. When I switch to a larger size feeder, I think I'll still feed him every week on Tuesday.

    Re: Do you have strict "feeding days"?
    SO far I've fed on Mondays between 5:00am-8:00am and karma has taken one each time so far (even through shed). I feed him early because I watched his behavior and noticed when he moved around on his own it was usually around 5:30 am and arounf 12:30 am, so I figured he'd be more energetic to eat.

    I usually feed on the weekends (sometime Friday afternoon through Sunday evening) because thats when I'm home from school. My bp's only eat live, so sometimes I have to skip weeks with them when live isn't available(I offer them f/t anyway, but they never take it.)

    I've been on Winter Break from school and the schedule has been kind off.

    I feed the same day I clean rodent cages, which I TRY to do on the weekends. Sometimes however I've got something else going on during the weekend and the rodents will get cleaned (and the snakes fed) when I have time the following week. In that case it can get pretty sporadic since I usually don't have time to clean ALL the rodents in one evening and end up spreading it out over several days. The snakes don't seem to mind though.

    Re: Do you have strict "feeding days"?
    We try to feed every Sunday or Monday night. Some will eat, some won't (especially now with cooling down and breeding going on). If one doesn't eat, we don't offer again until the next week.


    I don't want to hijack this thread, but I notice that some feed during the morning and others didn't say. As you answer, can you add when you feed if it is a specific time of day? It was my understanding that BPs should eat at night because that is their natural eating time. If others have been successful feeding during the day, that gives me more options. :carrot:
