Underfeeding to maintain size

[m00kfu]

I didn't know that people actually did this o-o That's like saying "Give that kitten food once a week, and it'll stay tiny and cute."

Not trying to single you out, but it's really nothing like that. Snakes are incredibly efficient animals. They do NOT need to be fed every week. If you were to look at ball pythons from the wild, I'd be willing to bet that most members on here would say it's skinny and underfed. I personally have multiple ball pythons who really do only eat a few times a year, by their choice.
