Not the most experienced keeper here and more than one person has said it already but...do NOT follow that advice! Your soon to be new snake's digestive system cannot handle that kind of feeding regimen! Snakes eat a big meal then require several days to digest. When a snake takes a big poop, it is then ready to have another feed. Could be 3 days from feed to poop, could be 2 weeks. Point is, thats how I've been advised to feed my snakes by keepers with decades of experience behind them. Good luck!
