I'd keep up with the assist feeding, every 5-7 days. Every 7 days is considered better. Sounds like your actually pretty well off if this Boa swallows on its own. You only put the food in its mouth and it swallows,that's not bad for non eater situation. Once you've fed this Boa every 7 days for 5 weeks. I'll bet it'll start feeding completely on its own. Your using frozen thawed mice(small or pinkie) I'm thinking. After 5 weeks if it will not start on its own try a live pinkie.
