I was away from my boa's for 2 months an well,while I was gone I put my boa's on a every 14 day diet compared to the normal feeding regiment they were on before I left every 7 days for females an every 10 days for males.I don't bring this issue up for an arguement but from what I have seen when I came back with 3 of them,I was a bit agrivated an too all those who stick to the your boa can do well with 1 meal a month crap I bet your ears were burning!This has been a long time disagreement some say one is power feeding some say one is not?Will we ever know?Who knows?It just don't make any sence why,before I left that every 1 of my boa's was very muscular an felt firm from the diet I had them on an now at least 3 of them feel like they have loose skin on them like they have been starved.I am not saying this happened to everyone of my boa's.Some did fine on this feeding regiment but 2 adult males an 1 adult female did not do well at all on this so called feeding regiment.Why?Who can actually say what a boa need's to eat weekly or byweekly,when every boa is different.Sorry I just felt this would be a good topic to discuss with the subject being brought up below a few times.Thanks an You all have a great an safe weekend.Eric
