Frequency of feeding doesn't really matter as much as the weighs of the feeding. 1 kilo rabbit every week or a 12 kilo pig every 3 months is the same in weight.

Their both 7 years old.

Which is another important factor as their both still putting their feeding into growth.

They also get handled every 7-10 days (depending on feeding and shedding) so use the energy they get fed.

I know of a keeper that only feeds every 2 months but the he cleans around the animal and it never leaves the enclosure.

I would rather feed more and exercise to put the calories to good use plus its much more stimulating for a snake to be dragged out now and then lol.

Beautiful snakes. Do they have climbing space in the cage? And to think I thought my dwarves can be a handful at times.
