Signs of hunger..?

[SammysMom]

Hi everyone,

Thanks to your help, I am slowly learning more about BPs every day.

One more question, do snakes show signs of hunger when they are hungry? If yes, what are they? Right now, I'm just feeding my little Sammy every week but what if she starts being hungry before then (e.g. maybe because the mice I'm feeding her aren't big enough anymore or something like that) is there anything I should look for?

Thanks,
Melanie

Some BP's show signs and some don't. My female usually doesn't show any signs of when she's hungry, but my male pastel is a different story. He will usually start to 'roam' his cage the day before I feed them, and as soon as the rat is in his tub he slams them hard.

For the first day after a feeding my little chow hound will eagerly poke her head out the second you go anywhere near her tub... I'd give her more, but then she'd probably just go off feed on me

Then again, she's a chow hound as it was so elegantly put for me, switched to FT no issue, got moved to two different homes in the same week and has eatten no problem while going into shed...

I got lucky, but I got her from an excellent source.
