    How often do you feed

    How often do you feed your blood? I'm trying to figure out a good feeding schedule for my girl. Still having a hard time getting her to eat frozen. She'll eat fresh killed but shys away from frozen. I'm wondering if I should wait longer in between feedings for her than I do for my other snakes.

    Re: How often do you feed

    I feed once a week every Sunday and have been doing so since my Blood was a baby.

    How are you preparing the frozen? Try heating its head up under a blow dryer.

    I let it thaw at room temp. Then (in a ziplock bag) put it in REALLY hot water for about 5 minutes. All my other snakes take the f/t with no issues. I changed up some husbandry so I'm hoping that will help.
