Re: feeding
How old is your snake and how much does it weigh? It's really hard to say what you should feed and how often without this information.

I find that a good rule of thumb is to keep the food item around the same girth as your snake, and every 7 days is pretty reasonable, some folks will go around every 5 days for younger snakes, and up to about 10 days for larger snakes.
Personally i feed my larger BP's once a week, and my hatchlings every 5 days or so. Hope this helps!!
