Re: how often do you feed your adult ball pythons?
This is actually too complex a question for a simple answer. You have to keep in mind that boith sexes experience long periods of inappetance at different times during the year. I like to keep my males on the slim side, so they get a small-medium rat every two weeks.
When they are feeding, my females get an appropriately sized rat every week. Medium usually, but I move down a size during the time from when I begin breeding trials, up to ovulation.
This regimen seems to work excellently for my colony of approximately 75 adults of various morphs.
