IM sure this has been posted before. I have a baby redt tail and i feed her a medium mouse every 4-5 days. Would this be considered power feeding?

Yeah, bump it up to every 7-10 days. Boas do not have the metabolism to completely digest a good-sized meal in 4-5 days.

You ought to also get your RTB over to rats instead of mice. They are supposed to be better for your snake and it can be easier to convert them to rats while they are still young.

They are. She is eating med. size mice right now. I just refuse to pay 20 for shipping some #$%^&#$%^&#$%^&#$%^& rat pups so she will have to deal with mice til she can get big enough to eat small rats
