    Feeding Guide

    Hello

    Is there a feeding guide on this site?

    I currently have a 2 month old BP and have fed him pinky rats, but I don't know what to move up to or when.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Re: Feeding Guide

    Hello,

    The general guideline is to feed your snake one prey item every 5 days for a hatchling or every 7 days for an adult.

    The prey item should be as thick as the thickest part of your snakes body.

    If you have a scale you can also feed 10-15% of the snakes body weight every 5 to 7 days depending on the age of the snake.
