At what point do you stop?

[Stewart_Reptiles]

So once females hit 600-700g you feed a 100g prey regardless of how large they get? Does their metabolism slow down that much after that size? Because if you follow the 10-15% rule a 1800g female should get a approx 275g prey. How often do you feed? Still once a week or once every 2 weeks?

No I don't at that size they get 55/65 grams rats.

I feed once a week

The 10% -15% of their weight "guideline" is something I never used, I just eyeball it.

While growing BP need more food as they get older their metabolism slows down and do not require large amount of food to strive.

Smaller preys weekly are preferable to larger preys.

I could not imagine feeding 450 grams rats to my 3000 grams girls and obviously if they reach 3000 grams with my feeding method they are far from starving .

Smaller prey also allow a BP to eat with more consistency with less fasting period.
