    While you can get girls to breed that small, I prefer my girls to be at least 1800 grams before I breed. I don't "push" them to get to weight faster, so I can't really advise you on that.

    just something to ponder.

    powerfeeding = lower life span.
    powerfeeding = fat snake.
    fat snake = higher chance of slugs
    fat, underage, heavy snake = no eggs.
    fat, underage, heavy snake = egg bind.
    fat males = lazy breeder

    i feed using 5-7 days schedule. & every 5-days for babies.
