I am currently feeding my bp on 7 day cycles. He is only around 21'' or so and I have been feeding him adult mice. Last feeding i put him in his feeding box and before i could even set the mouse down he yanked it right out of the tongs. he seemed kinda hungry. am i not feeding often enough? should i decrease to 5 or 6 day cycle until he gets on rats? or does a 7 day cycle just control the growth of the snake and has no ill effects? just wondering.
