Hey guys! I just discovered this site and am thrilled to join the community.
This snake was just delivered today, normally I wait at least 5 days to feed but am thinking I may need to feed sooner. I have been wanting a BEL for a while now and am thrilled to have one in my collection! I'm relieved that she is aware and active, shipping animals always makes me nervous especially when there was no heat pack in her shipping box.
This girl was hatched in August, I was expecting her to be bigger than she is so I emailed the breeder and asked when she was last fed. He said that he put her in brumation for a couple months and that's why she is so small. She was fed two weeks ago Saturday. A snake this size I would normally feed every 5 days.
Should I wait and feed her in 5 days or not? Any clarity on this subject is very appreciated!
