Feeding by weight instead of appropriate sized meals. More in depth feeding schedule.

So of i feed 1:3 every 2 weeks then a medium rat (150 grams) would be good.


Then when onto large rats and jumbo 1/4 every 2 week
(1000 grams
Snake gets a 250 g
Large rat very 2 weeks



Then rabbits is 1/5 very 2 weeks. Once she reaches about 7 ft or has been on rabbits for at least 6 months then ill feed 1/7 every 2 weeks. For example a 10 pound boa would get about a 3 pound rabbit a month. Or 1.5 every 2 weeks.


I

Theben finally after the boa is around 4 years old and over 8 to 9 ft for a female it's 10
Percent every 2 weeks. What do you all thnk about that detailed schedule? I have done a lot of research bout it. Would his be good. Not over or under feeding? I just like the know the math and not just judge by size. I'm interested to see of anyone else feeds specifically by weight like this. From what I have read and been experienced wot large snakes in the past this seems to leave toy with health well
Grown and good weight snake


Thnks for reading,

Mike
