My honest opinion... Your snake has been power fed, Sweetie. It's obvious that its just a bad advice source. For sure I would space out his feedings and keep them that way, every 3-4 weeks. My snake is approximately the same age as yours and Cloud makes my male look like a shrimp. For sure I would follow everyone's advice - change your schedule and keep it that way. You want a long, healthy relationship with him. Enjoy your gorgeous snake!
