HI,
If I had to guess maybe your feeding alittle to frequently, many adult boa's are on a feeding schedual that allows for passage of poo before intraducing another food item.
My adult guyana like to feed about one week after they eliminate if I try and feed early they just ignore the food.
I have my two 7 ft 3 y/o Guyana feeding once a month..
If I try and rush them a week early they turn up their nose and go to the other side of the cage.
But if I allow the time off look out..

I don't see the problem with putting 2 in there.
If your snake is use to eating 2 or 3 at a time, he will stil eat them if you leave them on the newspaper.
It just happened that the snake dumped on the food.

I have cornsnakes, ball pythons and jcp's at the moment, and all of them eat all the time, before, after and while they deficate (well only one cornsnake will often defecate at the same time he eats).
