Thanks
I feed 1-2 times/week and/or every time I see "the look" from my snakes. If a snake doesn't eat on Friday I don't wait until the next Friday to offer food again. I'm always feeding somebody. Every day.
Every snake is different. A snake that doesn't eat in the morning may readily take food later that day or the next evening. I have snakes (siblings) that eat their way to 2700 grams in 18 months while the sister is only at 1100.
I don't do anything weird or strange, I'm just vigilant. The faster I can get my animals up to size the faster I am going to have a chance at seeing a return on my investments, particularly with males.

Not to butt in, but I have a snake around the same age & size... my other two '09 babies are between 300-500g, but the Mojave (who was the smallest at first) is now over 750! I don't feed him anything special, just 1-3 adult mice every week - usually two, but he gets three if there's a leftover. I guess they all grow at different rates, although I have noticed the smaller ones are starting to catch up now.
