    if you feed weekly then you could be good off food for awhile. i would say up to 2 weeks comfortably
    she/he would be hungry by then so be ready for a priority feeding

    Re: Feeding BP early?

    Don't feed before going out of town, I stop all feeding a week before any trip.

    The reason? If the animal was to regurgitate while you are gone it could be a pretty bad situation situation for the snake not to mention not a such pleasant return for you.
