One of the cutest/goofiest things he does is bury himself in substrate, crawls half out of his hide, and peaks his head out of the mulch. He’s definitely a weirdo but I love him. Like a more inquisitive ball python with a blood red tail lol

Shed #3 with me today. Weighed in at 144grams, exactly double his weight on arrival here, though I’m certain he’s holding back some waste. He only poops like once a month or slightly more frequently at best.
He’s still eating hoppers weekly but they are looking super tiny anymore. Those who have raised boas from neonates, when would you consider offering multiple hoppers or increase prey size? He’s 9 months old next week. I’m by no means trying to push him in terms of growth rate but also don’t want him to be underfed. Just looking to hear about other’s experiences regarding prey size/frequency as he’s my first and (currently) only boa.

Thanks Ricky. The thing is, I’ve got a bag full of probably 30 frozen hoppers still. Think two hoppers per feeding for a bit would be okay? I generally don’t like to feed multiple items but I’ve got so many left and nothing else small enough to help eat them
