Since you feel that you have been criticized, might I critique you....

You would be much more accepted if you would slow down and type your thoughts out in a way that we could understand. Spelling and punctuation, unfortunately, play a huge part about how you are portrayed in the virtual world.

I would suggest, do your research, ask your questions, don't be offended when someone in the industry disagrees or suggests other things, and above all have fun and enjoy what ever animal you finally decide on.

As far as my experienced with breeding and going off feed:
probably 90% of my breeding females do not go off feed, I believe that they would probably eat all the way up to parturition. It is I who determines when they fast. The males, on the other hand, seem to have a seasonality built in and affects their feeding during breeding season at a very early age.

Good luck and remember Have fun they are just snakes,
