Yes, ofcourse. I didn't mean that you should feed your animals rediculous size meals and all will go well, I more meant in relation to the weight values I gave, people seem to think their animals can't eat something because it's too big when in reality they are probably underfeeding their snakes.
You are right though.

Absolutely I do. Not every week but maybe 2 or 3 times a year.
I also record the weights and lengths so I can track the progress and map that against animals of the same species.
I usually chuck them in a pillow case and put them on some digital kitchen scales.
But my biggest Python doesn't fit on the scales anymore so I'll have to get some sort of hook scales.
My Jungle is 11months old and feeding on 1 Fuzzy rat and One Hopper mouse every week. I need to bump it up to 1 Hopper rat though.... She's a bit small for her age but large bodied. She's about to shed any day now!
Bes way is to weigh your snake. You don't want to be over feeding as mentioned
