Too big?

[VigdisXX]

I just wanted some opinion, my girl is about 320g and ive been feeding her small rats (the smallest i can get that arent babies)
This is a pic of her after shes gotten it down and it doesnt seem to be an extremely large lump, but i wondered if maybe i should downsize?

Perfect

The rat should be as big around as her widest point

My pastel was approximately that size when I started him on small rats, but honestly the small rats I got him were not much bigger than some of their rat pups...Looking good though

Iv never liked to feed to see a lump that is perfect, IF you do that youll often find the snake more lethargic and lazy, and more likely to refuse next meal!

Hmmm... they'd be lazier because they are digesting but I think it would completely depend on how often you feed the snake. If you choose to feed to say, the size the OP has, then you'd adjust your feeding "schedule" accordingly.

That's a fine lump. Good rule to go by is feed something about as big around as the snake is at its widest part every week or two weeks and you're golden.

That's fine, it doesn't have to be a science.

Pretty snake!
