When I had my BRB for a year, I usually fed once a week for the first year (though she probably was 6-8 months old when I bought her) I owned her, then went to once every 10 days and that is pretty much the schedule I kept till she reached 3 years old, I feed about every 20 days now...usually medium rats.

She's a bit on the heavy side but been hoping to get her to give me babies this year. Not sure if she took though, as her weight's actually dropped though still feeding her same rate.

Keep an eye on weight gain..should be rather steady. My girl now is maybe an inch or two shy of 6' long and weighs 2900g.
