Cornsnakes,

...My BRBs eat very very sparingly while they are gravid. I offer them small rats midway thru gravidity and some of them will eat them. Others will refuse them and not eat the entire time they are gravid. Every year I have a few BRBs that look and act gravid when they are not. These snakes will sometimes go the entire 5 months without a meal and not lose weight and then start eating without laying babies. We do have a Rainbow Boa forum here on kingsnake.com. All questions, information, PICs etc about all the Epicrares are welcome there. Look for the link in the box here on the boa forum.

Jeff



>>I have a female brb that went on a three month fast and continued to gain weight and size(should be gravid)then yesterday ate a full size rat, has anyone else had a gravid brb eat while gravid?
