i have had this boa for about a year now she, is around 5 or 6 years old.... that photo is an older one.... shes a bit bigger at the moment.

my question is what size prey should she be fed?( she was fed a small rabbit everyother month before i got her) i have been feeding a jumbo rat about every 14 days, but she has begun to refuse to eat

here is what i have noticed, she eats the jumbo rat, then refuses to eat again til she sheds and poops....... is this common with bigger boas?

i have a smaller female who eats every 10 days.
