Personally I never plan a schedule ahead of time. Just wait until you can notice a definite pattern in the individual boa's metabolism and account for it accordingly. Two of my adult males were eating every 3 weeks by the time they were 6 months old. Those two males were also leaving sperm deposits before their 1st. b-day. However I have had others that I feed weekly up to breeding age (though they do get smaller meals than others of the same size).
