Between myself and my partner, we have about 20 bps (adding at least 24 hatchlings this year...maybe more). For you, it sounds like you do not have access to live feeders and it would be a hassle, so I can understand why you want to feed frozen. However, something I have noticed is that when bps get up around 800-1000 grams or about a year old, they can become a lot more picky about eating. I have had the experience many times where one of my snakes would quit eating for a month or more and as soon as I offered live they would eat 3-5 meals in a week, like I was starving them or something...



I can understand feeding F/T makes sense for some people, but I think in reality those people are few and far between, so very few breeders will ever spend time to work w/ F/T.
