Feeding Question?

I have a 5 month old Biak. I am new to GTP's and was wondering how often to feed. I feed all of my other snakes once a week but I read somewhere they have a slower metabolism than other snakes. Any info would be helpful.

Thanx
Scott

feeding question

scochoman the rule of feeding snakes is that they should be fed every 5 to 7 days for hatchlings every 7 to 10 days for juveniles and adults every 7 to 14 days. but you could just fed wait until it has pooped then fed again.

It is true that they have a sligtly slower metab. I would suggest you get a good book and do some serious reading....If you overfeed you might get into regurge syndrome and the bad thing is what you do now might not even sghow up for several months....Check out amazon for some books, they have an awsome selection...

Beautiful snake for 1.
I guess everyone here already covered it. Keep feeding it a steady diet, and it should be a big fella in no time.
