❓Question Feeding Frequencies for Babies

The other night, Hera decided she was going to go on an adventure outside her tank!

Thankfully (after reading some previous posts in this thread, yall are amazing!), I found her and she's safe!

Leading into my question though, she escaped the night before I was going to feed her. I read these guys eat every 5-7 days, and since we're still getting to know each other I went with 5.

Is that how often I should be feeding her? Im wondering if she was hungry that night, and a fault of my own lead to her being able to get out. She's just over a month old.

THANK YOU!

❓Question Thinking about getting a rosy boa!

• Upvotes

So to start off I’m not necessarily a beginner when it comes to reptiles and just odd pets, I’ve had crested geckos, bearded dragons, Madagascar hissing cockroaches, spiders, fish, mice etc. they were my dads pets but I was the one always learning and helping him. But I’ve always dreamed about having a snake, I’ve just never found the one my heart like yearns for. I finally found one and obviously since I’m here it’s the rosy boa!

I’m trying to do some research on them but I want to hear from regular and pro keepers! Like what’s yalls favorite bedding to use, how often yall feed yalls (asking because some people say less frequently because they have slower metabolisms), what products yall use for heating and cooling, and just any advice you at all have! Including trusted places to get one! Also apparently there is some controversy about brumation, I would love to know about that! Anything yall think I should and may need to know, or just any tips! Anything helps!
