Feeding a Fat Boa?
Or not feeding?
So, I just got another Hog and I think she is fat. Forgot my camera at the cottage, so I can't get any pics so I will do my best to describe. She looks like a sausage and her tail does not taper off smoothly, her body is thick and goes to a skinny tail. It kind of looks weird, I hope I described that right.
So, my question, how do you put a snake on a diet? Feed regular sized meals less? Feed smaller meals? Don't feed? Once I let her settle, should I redo her vivarium to include more opportunities to climb or something? How would you encourage some exercise? She is about 6ft according to the seller. My male climbs a lot, but not sure if the bigger females tend to.
Thanks for your advice.
(Yes, she is in quarantine. Since people usually seem to ask)
