Hey guy, I split this off as it's own topic since I thought it warrented more attention than being buried in another post.
First, Welcome aboard.
Second, you are risking a regurge with that boa feeding it so much after such a fast. If the boa has been without food for six months, it is really better to bring them back up slowly. Don't get me wrong, boas are hearty animals, but feeding large, closely spaced meals can stress an already stressed digestive tract. Don't feed that boa again for at least 14 days. If she does digest all she has in her stomach, GREAT!! Next feeding try to giver her something just a little smaller than her largest girth. It should not leave a lump in her. Feed her that way for about 3 feedings and then offer her a prey item that is about the same size as the largest size of her body. That should leave a small lump in her and you can continue to feed her that type of meal every 14 days forever.
I suggest feeding rats or rabbits and always feed frozen/thawed food.
If you have more questions, fire away.
