oh the temptation! oh the temptation!
Okay, so we are supposedly having a storm front heading our way tonight and I am sooooooooo tempted to throw my cinnie girl in with my pinnie male. She is just over 1000g so I know that this would not be in her interest, basically just mine (I know my bad  ).. but OH MY GOD.. it is so tempting to do so.. Arrrrggghhh... how does everyone else handle the temptation when they have a female close to weight.

Power feeding is NOT in the best interest of the animal.

Power feeding is not the way to go, maybe feeding them every 5 days rather than every 7 but power feeding refers to making the snake unwillingly eat another meal while they're swallowing another one, and is deeply frowned upon.

Re: oh the temptation! oh the temptation!
what exactly are the minimum weights for breeding. i have always heard like 1500 on males and 3 years old for girls but now im hearing of people using males that are like 500 and girls like 1000 whats up with that it cant be healthy?

It's a matter of opinion, males had been known to breed at 450 Grams and greater with being only 3 months old. As a rule most people will not breed a female unless she is at very least 18 months old and 1200+ Grams.
