Feeding my BP
Hey guys! Headsup I'm a newbie! Anyways, I did my first feeding yesterday of my BP (who I finally named Delilah) she downed an f/t mouse no problem, which is good bc the previous owner only fed live. Shes a pretty big girl, and the mice are pretty small ( bigger than head, but far smaller than her big ol butt) should I feed her more often until I can get some rats? she's about 40" below is a pic of her taking down the mouse thanks guys!

You don't need to feed her more often, but offer her more mice in a sitting. Once you get rats, make sure they are the right size. Underfeeding is one of the biggest problems I see with n00bz. I recommend feeding a meal that is about as big around as the fattest part of her body or roughly 10-15% of her body weight (ie. 1,000g snake should be fed 100-150g of rats every 7 days).
