I don't have near the experience most in here have. I've had one female for 15 years now and I feed her what she'll eat when she wants it. She takes mediums(150-200 grams) and larges (300 grams and up) and will go about a week or two between feedings. She generally eats only four or five months out of the year. What weight she puts on while on feed she looses during the winter. It seems to even itself out. This is just one snake so don't take for gospel, but it works for her.

P.S. This particular snake gave me a clutch of five viable eggs the 14th of this month and has yet to eat. Been off feed since Sept. last year. Think I'll let her rest this coming season.
