    One thing to consider might be to bump up your feeding schedule to weekly. You can cut down on the size of the feeders so that you don't end up over-feeding. I have always fed every boa I have weekly, no matter the age or size. I find that animals with full stomachs tend to be on the less aggressive side.

    Evolution primed these animals to coordinate aggression with hunger. There is nothing wrong with feeding smaller items more frequently. I personally feel that it is less taxing on the animal, makes for steadier healthy growth, and also keeps the snake satiated and full.
