I have read a lot about power feeding and was wondering what is a good feeding schedule to have your snakes on? Can someone also decribe an OBESE snake too? What are the distinctions i should look for? I am currently feeding my 06's every 5-7 days and my older boas every 5-6 days. their meals are small usually small enough to where you might see a very slight bulge. Should I extend the days between 7-10 and feed a larger meal? Does slow growth affect a boa as far as being an 04 and length is about 4ft. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
