Okay, so other than the fact that they want to make money, why do pet stores tell you to feed snakes once a week?
And I'm a bit confused here on the size of food given, and only feeding 1 item. Everyone is saying that you don't want to leave a large bulge, but I can put three good sized hoppers into my '11 (born May 4th) albino boa without really putting a big bump in the belly. So what the heck is my problem and what am I doing wrong? He isn't big enough for mice yet, I'm almost certain of that.
Is it possible that everyone just has their own opinions on feeding schedules? I agree that power feeding is wrong. But the snake is only going to grow according to how much they are fed. So if you feed it a good sized meal every 7-14 days how could it possibly be getting too much food?
I'm so confused by that.
