I see many obese boas too. I have one bp who is a little finnicky with feeding (he just moved from mice to rats FINALLY) so he is kind of a string bean but will steadily gain now and my other is a fatty but still just a little boy. My boys will likely never be this big and I do not care as long as they are healthyOriginally Posted by Sauzo
Lol no you dont. Dont give in to the new norm of having a fat snake for bragging rights. I see so many boas on FB that are fat sausages and people bragging about how their boa is 2 years old and 6' and eating rabbits etc. While that may stroke your insecurities or feeling of lack of worth, it does the snake nothing but harm. Just keep your snake on a nice moderate feeding schedule and let them happily grow old with youDottie was fairly trim at the beginning of last summer but she got really hungry and was out running all over looking for food so i bumped her up to a medium rat every week. But this past week, she refused food again so I'm guessing winter is coming as she quits eating during winter.
