Yesterday I bought a 2 1/2 year old hypo boa that is stunning but the kid I got her from was only feeding her once a month and never handling her. Needless to say I was bitten 2x before I left his house. She is only 4-4 1/2 ft long and weighs 1500 grams roughly (just guessing but its close). She is obviously underfed and my question is should I feed every 10 days as a normal boa is recommended or should I feed her a little more often as she is very skinny. I'm assuming that the striking is mainly hunger and partially from lack of handling but I'm curious as to what those that keep boas have to say in that regard. Any additional info is appreciated. Thanks
