You also have to be more careful about feeding them. You should put them on an every seven day feeding regimen as babies, every ten days as sub-adults, and every 14 - 21 days as adults. Their metabolism is slower than a ball pythons. The frequency of feeding is determined by the size of the prey. Larger prey items require longer digestion time. Good luck.

That is exactly what I do with mine. Except there Humidity stays 65% to 70% (thank you boaphiles ) I feed mine the same as well. Under a year, every 7 days. Over a year, every 10 days and over 3 years, every 14 days. I have never had a bad shed on anyone of my boas and all are trash cans when it comes feeding time. Its great because if one of my BPs turn down food (which doesn't happen often with me) I def. have a boa that will take it down .
