My JCP just hit 3 years and she seems to have leveled out....

...female..she's easily 6+ feet...

I can't wait untill mine gets that big! Mine's only a year, she's growing tho! I suggest u go into ur herp store and ask to look at different sizes of food. Find one that is about the same size as the thickest part of the snake's body. With my snakes, they eat that size every 1 to 2 weeks. If you already know what size this is and you're wondering how many to feed ur snake, then, i'd just give it one, and then half a week later, offer it another. Or wait and see how long it takes for it to have a bowel movement. Cuz if it takes it a fewdays, you could feed it more. Or, atleast I'd think so cuz a snake processing an appropriately sized meal in a few days is pretty fast. I doubt there's a set answer to ur question, it depends on the snake, so just see how much it will eat in a controlled manner so you don't feed it too much and force it to regurgitate. I hope this helps.

...I brought her in VERY discreetly..

...always fun to watch

...chillin' at home. Anyway..how much should she be eating?
