You should look at making this a poll so that we could see the results in a bar chart (Start a new thread, go to "Additional Options" under the main thread screen and tick the bottom option "Post a Poll").

My Boas are not the common species, being Pacific Boas Candoia bibroni, and I keep them in their normal temperature range, i.e., they go through their natural summer and winter variations, so I fed them on demand and they regulate themselves as per option 4:
4.Seasonal Patterned (feeding weekly during spring,summer, fall months possibly winter off?

They feed about every 2 weeks in the summer months (and would probably take more frequently), and go off feed completely for 2 - 3 months in the colder winters, even though I offer food every few weeks anyway. Their shed cycle speeds up and slows down similarly.
