I have a female boa (BCI) that is approximately 6' and 10lb. She is 2 and a half years old. I have been feeding her 2 f/t medium rats every Friday. She could easily take a large rat. She has been eating this way for a few months, and has been doing great. I fed her this Friday, and now 2 days later, she is staring at me like she does on feeding day. Normally when I walk by her cage she just pokes her head out of her hide, and watches me, but now her head is all the way out and all the way up to the glass. She normally only does this on Fridays, and that’s after I start bringing her dinner down. Seems to me she wants more. Now for the question, should I give her a third medium on Fridays? I have an abundance of medium rats, but no large. Should I go ahead and buy the large and give her 2 of those? Thanks for all of your help, in advance.
