Ok well rmemeber before someone posted aboit aswitching to every 10 days after 18 months so about 18 months i estimate mine will be about 4 1/12 feet so your saying when she goes on medium rats switch to every 10 days then once you get to rabbits then go every 2 weeks/? thanks

its not really about the size food your snake is on rather then the age- always feed appropriately sized meals- at around 18 months back off to 10 days-

i've heared that rabbits are bad for boas. two high of fat content which gives them fatty livers. I know i'm not an expery on boas, but i think that someone should look into this.

this is where i got my information ( as well as a few other places)

rabbits are why chance got so fat. they are more fatty. guinea pigs are the worst. you should never feed guinea pigs. i feed my snakes once a week till they are 1 then i feed every 2 weeks.

Same here. Mine are fed once a week until 12 months old, then I switch to 14 days. I'm in no hurry to fatten my babies up to be unhealthy. Natasha is gonna be huge soon enough and my little guy may never get there. I see no point in power feeding.
