You could buy a dwarf burmese? Like Paul, I don't understand why you would get a burm if you want it to be a 'manageable' size.

i only feed my molurus molurus once every 6-8 week on 900-1300g rabbit's. and they do very well on this. the snakes themselves weight in at 9 kg

Molurus,

Thats a large meal in decent period the problem I have with this thread isnt feeding a snake larger meals less frequent at all its the wanting to stunt an animal by under feeding it Cool

That's a very nice snake you have btw Smile

Same with me as MJ said, not havin a go at people who feed large items over spaces of time that are good for the animal eg Molourus feedin a 1300g rabbit for 6 - 8 weeks.
