Lauren, are you perhaps related to Dr. Douglas Mader? If you were, that'd be surely cool



anyways, I was going to suggest the girth thing as well. IN addition, perhaps specifiy rabbit weight. A detailed guide should well, be detailed right? Perhaps also include information on healthy prey animals, the benefits of feeding weekly, bi weekly, or monthly (I don't recommend monthly, but know some people do it and it works). Also perhaps discuss the benefits of monitoring your snake's weight, as well as how the feeding schedule might need to be adjusted to the individual.



Lastly, there are benefits to feeding at a varied interval with varied prey species and types. Albiet not likely acheivable in a large collection. Perhaps, if no facts on this last point are available, a discussion paragraph could be included to get the readers thinking.
