I breed boas and balls. So my females HAVE TO be up to weight to breed at the end of the year. If I fed every three weeks to a month my girls would never be ready. At that pace theyd still be saggy and flabby by the time I introduce my males in october. The guy I knew in Michigan had a set number of rats his females must eat to get their mass back. After they gave birth in march/april, he had one of his bigger females on a regiment that called for 54 large rats by october, or something like that. I know it was 50-something. So... yeah. Feeding is important to breeders. Before anyone jumps all over me for "powerfeeding", let it be said that I DONT. I feed to put weight BACK ON my females after they barely eat all of the breeding season. I dont feed like that to get them up to breeder size. I slow grow all my ladies (and gentlemen) because as we all know it makes the healthiest snakes, and health is important to my breeders.
