I've heard burmese pythons get "pin-headed" if you feed them too much. Does anyone have a photo example of such a thing?

I don't really have a set schedule in feeding my girl, but on average she gets fed a rat every 5 days or so. She's just over 6 feet long. Am I over or under feeding her?

I don't want to over feed her, but I certaintly don't want to starve her either. I've heard lots of conflicting information about how 1)burmese python owners grossly overfeed and 2)you can't overfeed a young burmese.

Oh, and P.S., she took her first rabbit last week. Left a bulge, but not an uncomfortable looking one, and she really liked it. What a momentous day it was :P
