Boas do not need to be fed as much as a colubrid. A good feeding schedule is once every 7 to 10 days. Once they start feeding on a weened rat, once every 10 to 14 days is good. When they start on medium to large rats a once every 2 to 3 weeks is plenty.
You are right if a boa is feed to heavy it will shorten its life.
Good luck with your new boa.
Chuck
