I am trying to put some good size on my Het Balls for the winter 2005 breeding season and I was wondering what would be the best technique to do so. I don't want to put any unnecessary stress on the snakes by force feeding. Right now, my male 04's (175g. & 115g.) are eating a large mouse (f/t, p-k, live)every 4 days and my female 03's (250g. & 210g(small!)) are eating a f/t small rat (sometimes preferring p-k & live large mice though) every 5-7 days. I just wanted to get some advice and ideas from you experienced guys and gals out there. Thanks!
