Congrats on the new BP Kevin. I agree with much of what's already been said. When to feed is totally up to you. I've fed some snakes a day or two after arrival and others I've waited a week to feed. It all depends on how comfortable I think the critter is. I feed all my snakes in their enclosures and since they're primarily nocturnal creatures I always feed them at night. Best wishes with the new addiction. Hope to see pictures soon.![]()
