Great feedback guys I'm going to try to cut back her feeding. This is really important. So often are new herpers including myself told to feed around the girth of the snake which is what I have been doing. I have had trouble with feeding with my snake and I have a suspicion that this is in part due to to large of rats. I also appreciate the last point about it's pooping. I'd love to get 8balls point of view on this. If anyone knows how to contact him see if we could get him on this thread. Thanks.
