    Most snakes are always on the look-out for food, instinctively, because in the wild (where they rely on instincts) food isn't always available
    "on schedule", it's a matter of always being ready to grab it when the opportunity arises. This doesn't mean you should feed them every
    time they act like they want or need it. They're a bit like growing teenagers...always wanting to eat...but better to stick to the schedule
    & always allow at least 5-7 days to digest...& more as the prey is older (it's harder to digest). You don't want to risk a regurge by feeding
    before the last meal is digested.
