And I'm not sure I am allowed to post this here because its from another website but hey I'm gonna try anyways.

Is this a good feeding guide for a RTB? From what I've read here, the prey size seems small here especially during the first year or two. By the way mine is a female if that helps any.


Baby boas - 18 to 22 inches - Newborn to 3 months
Should be fed pinkie or fuzzy rats. They can be fed one food item every 4 to 5 days.

Juvenile boas - 2 to 3 feet - 3 to 12 months
Should be fed Fuzzy or Pre-weanling rats. They can be fed one food item once a week. (7 days)


Yearling boas - 3 to 4 feet - 1 to 2 Years
Should be fed a Weanling/Small/Medium rat every two weeks. You can use the smaller prey items such as a Weaned/Small rodents to maintain a smaller in size adult boa, or the Medium rodent for a larger sized adult boa..


Adult boas - 4 feet and up - 2 Years and up
Should be fed a large to jumbo rat depending on length and girth. I feed adult females and males every two weeks, however the rat size offered to adult males and females differ in size, with females receiving Large/Jumbo rats and males receiving Small/Medium size rats. This keeps them compatibly sized.
