I don't consitute animals going to be using a large amount of their energy and body and fed a little more to aide in that as overfeeding.

3. If you can't tell the difference between what I mean by overfeeding and what you do then that's on you and how you read my posts. I can't be held responsible for what you understand.



Bingo! I don't feel the need to explain anything beyond what has been said here.
Wrong! I've been breeding for six years. Garter and king snakes for 4 years and ball pythons for the past 2 years. However I have owned all three species for over a a decade and a half or more.
Ok. I posted a picture of my pastel female breeding my pied and I know she is huge ai 2200 grams. I know that I have been pumping her and my albino female who is being paired as well. They are both still taking food so I know they are both being overfed.
I know what you mean by over feeding. You didn't clarify or exclude the times when breeding. Thanks.
