We've been feeding our BP a large f/t mouse but it seems to be too small for him now so we tried a small f/t rat. He seemed interested but didn't eat it, so we thought maybe it was too big? Since the mouse seems too small we thought maybe we should offer 2, so my husband did and the snake gobbled them both up pretty quickly.
So we were wondering if it's ok to offer 2 mice and do we assume, since he ate both, that he was hungry enough for both or would he eat both if we offered even if he didn't want/need it?
He is about 2 feet long and I think he could eat the small rat (it's about the same size around as he is, I think). Are there ways to get them switched to rats from mice? And what would happen if he tried to eat the rat and it was too big?
Thanks in advance for any help
