Been told by BE on a different forum that for 176g, 3 month old Boo, that prey size between 17-25g is fine for her. If I feed her the larger of the 2 weights (25g), does this mean that i would be feeding her every 7 days, or still every 5 days. just wondering if the weight of the prey affects how long it takes snakes to digest it. |

It doesnt make a huge differance either way. I would probably feed every 7 days. |

Just to give a different perspective, I have red weekly with every snake I have had, changing to 10 days then 2 weeks around the 1kg mark. Work the one that works for you. |

I work on (roughly):
0-400g every 5 days
400-800g every 7 days
800-1200g every 10 days
1200g+ every 14 days. |
