:There is absolutlely no reason to feed your snake that much. How can it proparly digest all that food fast enough. You are going to end up with a fat, unhealthy snake. That will live a short life. What happened to your ball and boa? Did they die?Trust me all it needs is one appropriate sized meal every 7 days. Every 5 if you want to power feed, but every day is too much.


No the Rosy Boa and Ball Python did NOT die.
Thank you for your advice.
