Another Feeding Question
I am a new BP owner, I got a female yellowbelly over the weekend. The recent feeding poll had me wondering, how often should I feed her? She weighs 135g on empty, and just took a fat fuzzy an hour ago. Some people feed their young snakes every three days, some every five, so I am just a bit confused. I want to do things right, that is for sure!

Re: Another Feeding Question
It's fine to feed once a week, some feed every few days in attempts to get the animal upto size a little faster

Re: Another Feeding Question
I feed hatchlings 15% of their body weight every 5 days. Really just depends on how fast you want them to grow. Ive seen people feed 20% body weight every 4 or 3 days but thats just not for me.

Good to know! I just wanted to be sure she wasn't getting under or overfed!
