I think someone else has a similar sized snake right now... I actually tried arguing that there could be no way it was that small, they got a precise measurement (they had guessed before) and I was shocked. I really cant believe anyone could let a BP stay that size when they are so easy to feed adequately as long as you have the rodents.
My snake refuses to eat f/t unless she needs it to keep her body weight up. She has never lost weight, only gained it. But she has gone as many as 4 months not eating and usually eats every 1-2 months. No weight loss, though. At this point I wouldnt be surprised to find out she's 99.9% water.
And I have tried to set up 2 breeding operations for her in the past. The mice I ended up just all feeding to her ~_~ The rats, well she chose when I got them to eat 2 times in a month, so I thought things were fine, got rid of all but a female who was pregnant... the female rat was too young, I guess, and didnt take care of the babies. So before I start breeding this time I will either buy larger females or let the females put on more weight before breeding them.
