Sounds like a good feeding schedule.

Not to make implications about the store you purchased them from, but sometimes stores will give their snakes a maintenance diet.

By this I mean they feed smaller meals, or less frequently.

Enough to keep the animal healthy, but they try to slow the growth.
Smaller snakes usually sell better to the non-breeding customers.

They might still be hungry.

After a meal, they should stay in their hide, and barely move for a day or so while they digest.

If they were still active after eating, they may still be hungry.
