Hi guys, finally my 1 week hands off period is over and fed my python today (now another 48 hours hands off time :(
Its not been sexed yet, the Vet that specialise in reptiles will only be back from holiday the 20th. So if its a female I'm gona call her Abesiss and if its male Dimitri.

He took a rat pup today, no problem (Phew!!)
Do I also feed him weekly?

Here are some pics, will post more after the 48h.

Well he or she certainly looks like they're enjoying their rat pup! Fab names too by the way.

I believe my Bruce (who incidentally isn't sexed, I just figured it would be funny to have a girl called Bruce if my male assumption was wrong, haha!) is an 09 also and am feeding every week unless in shed - in which case I just skip it completely for that week . I'm sure somebody with more experience will confirm this as being correct or not.

Hi CoN,Gorgeous colouring!!! This is what i try to follow for feeding BE put it up on a thread


0-400g feed ~ every 5 days
400-800g feed ~ every 7 days
800-1200g feed ~ every 10 days
1200g+ feed ~ every 14 days

These are just a rough guide.

Sorry cant advise on hatchling weights as sheba was about 8/9mth old when i got her. Im sure someone with more experiance will be able to answer that one tho!

your welcome! i found it really useful, sheba wont feed every 5 days and she is about 357g maybe a bit more now, so feed her every 6 and she is quite happy with that!
