I agree with that. Snakes have much more efficient and slow metabolisms. Most reptiles that are at a healthy weight look thin to others. On the other hand healthy to some is obese to others. What I dont agree with is purposely feeding a bp in a store mouse pinkys or even rat pinkys to keep them small and on top of the sparsely feeding them on undersized prey. I also look at maintainance feeding as different from that. Like say what breeders do. That a much different thing than what the chainstores do to keep the animals small.
