I've got a 1 year old carpet python, I choose not to over feed her with 2 rats a week, I dont like the idea of pumping food in my animals system just to have her grow huge and mate her. I personally view it as a tad bit immoral BUT at the same time I would love to have her grow slowly and naturally to her potential size. Here is what I do, I feed her 1 rat a week with a one week fast every month. Will she still be as big as another snake that is being fed twice a week every week??? If she will be but that it takes 3 or even 4 years then thats fine by me.

What are ur thoughts??
