Interesting read about boa & python feeding.

Before people jump into a new feeding regime, I think the best thing they should do is start keeping detailed records of weights, shedding, defecation, and feeding. If you drop down to a more reduced feeding regime, monitor the snakes weight to insure it is not losing weight rapidly (assuming it is not overweight to start). Then adjust your feeding to compensate.

I like a lot of "serious" boa people. Gus Rentfro, Vin Russo, a host of others that REALLY know boas. DR. Booth is on the list.

I'm glad he is posting here and think people should take note of his posts.

Most boas in captivity are overfed, but if you are doing things the right way, don't assume your snake is, as noted above.

Thanks DR. Booth for adding to the topic.
