from what ive read they have basically the same feeding schedule as BPs depending on if you want to stall their growth a little bit depending so you dont get a "monster" and even then you delay the feeding by like 1 or 2 days. Im not 100% sure on that but im pretty sure its what i rememebr. Im goign to get a male and feed him normal, a 7or8 ft snake doesnt scare me, but if i had a 9+' female i would be in a little over my head because i wouldnt have anyone to help me handle it
