 Feeding tips

So i am wondering about my largest snake right and if we are feeding her too much. i have a 94lb indian python who gets 4-5lb rabbits every other week. i think she is a bit fat, but she is always very active around feeding time and has never refused a meal in the two years i have been working here (unless she is opaque). any advice is welcome.

Reduce feeding to once a month. :-)

First of all, how long/ big is she? 94 pounds could be overweight, or it could be hideously emaciated. Is she eight feet, or twenty?
I’m not a big fan of once a month feedings. When people "need" to do that, it tends to mean the prey items are too big.
