(He eats 1 about every other day)

whats is the meaning of this. to get a big and large snake on short time?? and died short time.

i give mine once a week a half growup rat , the adult get 2adult rats once a week.

its normale when they young they can eat every day.
but you have to give a normal feeding and time.

You do things your way doen't mean other ways are WRONG. I f the snake is hungry I feed it-I do not "stuff" it each feeding. I offer it 1 mouse hopper or rut pup. I am sure that a snake in the wild if it were hungry wouldn't pass up a meal just because he ate the day before.
My rattlers when they come out of hibernation usually eat everyday once they shed. They are healthy breading snakes.
Don't be sarcastic because things aren't done your way.
