OK SO I GOT TO GIVE THE SNAKE 48 HRS TO DIGEST THERE FOOD BEFORE HANDLING IT AGAIN. IF I FEED IT 2-3 TIMES A WEEK WHEN DO I HAVE TIME FOR HANDLING? I KNOW ITS A STUPID QUESTION BUT IM A NOOB AT THIS. THANX IN ADVANCE

ALEX

i assume you want your snake to get bigger quicker. if you want this you can try feeding a bigger meal once a week or every 5 days. this way it get just as much food as it would in feeding 2 times a week but you will have more play time. feed a meal that's bigger. wait like 2 to 3 days & then you have 2 to 3 days to play before next feeding

You shouldn't have to feed it that often.
How big is your snake?
What size mice are you feeding it?
How many mice?
