>> "I feed him about every 2 weeks-as soon as he comes out looking for food."





*** That isn't a very optimum feeding schedule,...as mentioned before, a meal that is "slightly" bigger than the snake's diameter at mid-body and leaves a slightly visible lump is a good general rule of thumb. At good temps(low 80's), a snake that age/size should be fed a substantial meal at LEAST once every week.
