    Re: Question on feeding/powerfeeding an ex fasting baby

    TRUE power feeding is starting the head of a second prey item in the mouth of the snake before it finishes the first, essentially eating two rodents back to back in an attempt to artificially bulk up the snake.

    Feeding frequently does not equal power feeding. Ball pythons are very good at regulating their intake. When they don't want a second prey item, they simply won't take it.
