Yeah colubrids are monster eaters!
My corns would probably eat a frozen rodent if I offered it!
Of course, I would never, ever, do that, but it wouldn't surprise me!
So glad he's doing so well!

And boas & pythons aren't? ;) Most snakes don't survive by being fussy...I suspect BPs just didn't get the memo. :giggle:

Longer than you normally would, obviously...but he's a snake & nature has no schedule. No need to complicate things- wait until he defecates & looks "empty". ;)
And we're getting into winter, so even though he's warm, most snakes slow down a little...though he may not, as he's making up for lost time? I'm pretty sure
he'll be letting you know it's time. ;)

That's a huge jump, hope he keeps it down. :rolleyes:
