>>A couple means two and a few weeks usually means three. They got the snake mid July and I wrote this post on August 6. So it would be three. It didn't sound like they were feeding it alot at first because the guy at the pet shop were giving them fuzzies when she should have been fed larger ones.

It's very hard to know if something is wrong, but if the snake is feeding, and doing ok, then just keep an eye on it. I would keep a log of her sheds, also. It may change, and become more normal. I think three weeks is a bit soon, but who knows what's going on?

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!
