I realize that...I didn't mean to imply that they were


What I meant is I don't want to be in a position where my interests might not be in the best interest of the snake. I realize that conservative feeding is well within the bounds of healthy snake husbandry I just didn't want to put myself at a point where I might take it to unhealthy levels due to a fear of size.

hope I didn't raise anyone's hackles...that wasn't my intent at all
