I would like some imput on this. As some of you know, I have a year old BP male named Dax, I don't have a recent weight but he is right around 3 feet long. He is eating small rats. We feed him every Monday. He always acts like he has never seen food before and snaps it up. Is he getting to hungry? Would it be a good idea to go to a feeding schedule of either 5 or 6 days instead of 7? The small rats are the right size food for him, they are easily handled by him and leave a slight bulge when he is done. He is hungry enough that he is snapping at us when we put him in the food container, and you better not put anything moving near it that isn't a rat after he is in there or he will nail it.
I'm concerned about choosing between knowing he wouldn't eat that regularly in the wild, not wanting to loose his terrific feeding response, and feeling like I may be starving my poor baby. Help, please!
