Do all RTB’s get big enough to eat rabbits?
I supposedly have a Colombian Red Tail or at least that’s what the pet store said LMAO Knowing they have been wrong before... Anyways, my wife has a problem with the whole getting that big thing and I must admit that was a bit of an oversight on my part. Most of what I read and was told is that these guys only got around 5-6 feet with an extreme case of 10 feet and would need a large rat at adulthood. Any who the question got longer I guess :) |

Heres a goodLink to help ya check your snake vs color and size...if it gets to be a problem let me know...and I believe rats are good for the whole life of the snake IF you can’t afford babbits.....yea, I typed that right--my son calls ’em "Babbits"...lol,,,,he don’t understand why we have 7-8 when he’s here on the weekends but the following weekend theres only 3..shhhhh...we also have burms...shhhhhh  |

Also I’ve read that to get the bigger sizes people like to power feed; is this the case with some of them? And Razeraze is yours a Colombian? Can either of you, or anyone else, post your feeding schedule? I’m currently feeding my little one an adult mouse every 10 - 14 days, which is the feeding schedule I had with my other snakes years ago. But I know that different types of snakes like/require different feeding schedules. The only real concern that was brought up about having a larger snake is that it might get out and eat one of our other house pets :) more specifically my wife’s cat  But if he only gets 7-8 foot and will survive off of a large rat or two thing should be gravy. |
