Power feeding, will result in your boa getting longer and fatter, but the bones of the snake will not be able to keep up with the flesh and you will end up with a pin head, really big body, itty bitty head, kind of like the bettle juice of the snake world. It also has many other draw backs such as health problems for the snake and a shorter life span, in general it is a bad idea, that is still a hold back from the 80's breeders when getting to the next level was the differance between being the man and not being the man, it is no longer the problem and not worth the damage to the snake (not that it ever was worth the damage but we were dumb back then!)
