Hello all 
Recently returned to these forums after a couple year break, life gets hectic for us all sometimes. I raised and bred corn snakes for 6 years and have owned reptiles all my life and I couldn't imagine life without them!
I got my red tail last year and having never owned a boa before I couldn't be happier. We got off to a rough start, bought her as a yearling from someone here on kingsnake and when she arrived she had mites. We worked through it but it took several months for her to completely recover, thankfully her appetite was never affected or else she may not have made it.
She has grown like a weed and still eats like a cow. Usually 1 jumbo rat every 7 days, is this too often? She gets restless and snappy if she goes more than that without food, to the point of pacing back and forth in the tank and tracking my dogs if they walk close enough to her tank. I have locks on her cage because my dogs are both around 5 pounds. A couple people I have talked to said she should only eat every 14 days, is this right?
Anyways, here are some picture
