Do all BPs fast?

[Zincubus]

Thanks for the responses! Sounds like the key is proper husbandry and not overfeeding. It's also heartening to hear that amazingly there do seem to be some BPs out there that don't really fast.



4 weeks actually isn't bad and sounds like a regular interval to go without food for a snake, it's the strikes that last months that I dread. Good to hear that your BPs are good eaters



I share the belief that many captive snakes are overfed, especially since they also probably don't get as much exercise as wild snakes. Your method of feeding sounds pretty good, I will likely adopt something similar when my BP is fully grown.

I’m not sure it is husbandry as I had a pair of identical Albino Royals in identical adjacent viv setups ..

One ate every 10 days without fail the other went 9 months without eating a thing ?!!

Both eat everytime these days ..

The one that fasted 9 months recently produced five stunning babies !!
