Am I under feeding her?
I've got a feeling that I may not be feeding my female bull snake enough food. She's 2 y/o, a little over 6ft, and about 2200g even though I haven't weighed her in awhile. I've been feeding her a 100g medium rat every 7 days on average. Sometimes she gets another small rat or a chick and she still acts hungry. The last 2 weeks she's been very actively looking for more food. She's been on high alert and lunging towards me when I open her enclosure. I've had to start using a hook to get her out. Normally she's in her hide for 2-3 days after a good meal. I'm almost positive she can handle a large rat but I've got about 15 mediums left. I'd think 2 mediums would be a bit much. Any thoughts?
