    I feed my snake once every 5 days, 10-15% of his body weight. I weigh out every mouse I feed him to make sure its the right size.

    No, I am not trying to say that any one person is power feeding.

    But from reading a lot of posts, it seems that the "idea" seems to be "feed as often as the snake will take it, to get the weight up as fast as you can, so you can breed as fast as you can"

    And I was going from memory, but my Nov 2008 male is 318.4 grams, not 290.

    Tzeentch - Where in South Jersey? Brick, Ocean County here.

    300 Grams for an '08 still sounds small to me and I am a slow grower myself. I have a couple mid summer 2009's that are sitting in the 300-350 gram range but not an '08!
