OK I have a columbian red tail boa...she is 45" and about 1 /2" thick....Im guessing shes about 10 months old...I feed her medium rats that leave a little lump in her once every 10 days...is that too much food.....I was going to switch her to large rats at 4 1/2 ft. every 10- days then jumbo at 51/2 then rabbits every 2 weeks at 6 ft that are like 10% of her body weight every 2 weeks...let me know what everyone thinks
thanks
Mike

What you are feeding her now sounds okay.

Sounds like you have a plan. I'd be careful about the times, and make sure she poops before feeding again.
