    LOL!!! I know right. That hide is certainly to small for him but he seems to LOVE it anyways! Haha. He has like 3 other hides of appropriate size for him in his enclosure but spends most of his time wearing his hat. Goofy......

    They tend to do that! I think he likely just prefers the spot that that particular one is in, try to swap it out with a larger-ish hide in the same area.

    Nice! Got to love a good feeding response! I agree with the need for a slightly larger hide

    I figured people would say that (about the hide), haha! His feeding response is amazing though. Just as good as my boas actually. Stalks me for food it seems everytime I go near him. Medium rat every two weeks is ok right? Sometimes I think its not enough although it leaves a BIG lump! Always seems like he's hungry though......

    Maybe try a slightly smaller rat once every 7 days? I feed my adult bps every 7 days regardless.

    Id definitely start feeding him a slightly smaller meal every 7 days or so. But that's just me.
