I have a 300 gram Albino male ball that went on a hunger strike for two months. Now he is eating small ASF rats every three to four days (8 of them now). How many should I keep feeding him? Should I give him all he wants every three to four days?

Its just one mans opinion but I would not feed more than once a week. I have found in the long run they become more consistent feeders and don't become overweight. Sometimes when I have one that has been off feed I will give an extra meal or two but then back to once a week. Let weight gain be your Que to feed more. If the snake is gaining gradually you are doing fine. I weigh every snake in the collection once a month at keep records. But this is only one mans opinion ......... !

i wouldnt feed it to much because it could gane to much wait which is probably be unhealthy, i had a teacher that fed his balls every day for his students and they died

I was only feeding him every three to four days to get his weight back up after his hunger strike. But now I only offer feed once a week.
