Hi guys just a quickie

Im wondering at what point i should start feeding the two bigger snakes on a weekly basis ?
When i bought Artemis she was being fed once a week but since hes been with me ive fed her every 5 days simply because thats how often i feed all the others
I plan to keep feeding Eve and Barl every 5 days but im wondering if Eddie and Should be on weekly feeds ? i do not want them getting too porky thanks in advance

I've just always fed mine every 7 days. I don't think it would matter to increase theirs to 7 days and keep you others 5? Or just change them all to 7 says?

Some people feed hatchlings every 5 days others feed every 7 days, it's just down to the individual. However, once the snakes get to around a year old, I'd think it's time to move them on to being fed every 7 days.
