    Re: Mouse size

    Fuzzy mice are WAY too small for BP, the average hatchling is started on hoppers and quickly move to adult mice.

    You need to eyeball it and feed a prey equal to your BP's girth size (widest part of your BP's body) once every 5 to 7 days.

    wait to feed till the next feed day and offer an appropriately sized item. By the size of snake you are describing I would say a hopper would be a better size.
