once a week feedings will be ok if you are feeding pinks. snakes were designed by nature to go for long periods without food. an extreme case in one of my snake books I got as a kid...an african rock python was fed a goat...it didn't eat for 3 years. thats a little extreme, but they can go for a week easy without food, takes a while to starve a snake to death

how hot does it get??? they can handle heat...but keep them out of direct sunlight, maybe leave a fan on with some windows cracked to circulate the air and keep it somewhat cooler
