MY BCI she is now 38" with a 1 1/4" at widest part. Hses been doing great...One thing that I find weird is thats when i got her 2 1/2 months ago she was 33" and eating 2 large mice a week.....about 1 month after I ghot her I moved her to a small rat a week...shes eating 1 small rat a week now but she is getting a bulge just not that much anymore but it is still nnoticeable.....When is the right time to move to medium rats?? I was thinking qwhen her girth reaches 1.5 inches? But doesnt around 42" of boa seem to small for a medium rat.? ONe more thing...once she goes to mediums I will cut back to every 10 days this is correct right? Then go with a appropriate size rabbit every 2 weeks once they hit the 6-7 foort mark?
thanks alot
Mike
