    I was told that there is no obese ball pythons but boas are different story. I got confused on 15% limit, so I asked this question on well known reputable breeders in White Plain Show. Not just one reputable breeder. 99% of the answers were let them eat what they can and they will slow down by themselves. I should also check my Russo BEL's size, age and weight ratio.

    She was eating 20% of her body weight for 2 months and sometimes 25% every 7 days. My little white BP was still asking for more even after multiple rats and mouse (25% of her body weight) but I did not give her more. My limit is 20% even if she ask for more. She poop every two weeks.
