    But anyway I've been feeding my new baby BP every Saturday & giving her a good sized hopper mouse. I fed her last weekend (first feeding since I had her) & Friday I noticed her out stalking the area of the tank where I had fed her so she already knew it was getting close to her feeding day.
    So yesterday I fed her in the same spot & again she ate great. After swallowing the mouse she went back into her cave for a few mins...then came out again & sat watching the feeding spot in a ready-to-strike position & she stayed like that ALL evening & night fixated.

    Is she still hungry...do I need to feed her 2 hoppers per feeding...She is slightly underweight I might add.
    How old is she and how much does she weigh?

    Mouse hoppers are pretty small, even for hatchlings. Hatchlings can also eat every 3 or 5 days if you want. I would imagine she's probably just hungry. Depending on her size you will probably need to increase the size of the food.
