    prey too big?

    Just fed Jackson a rat crawler, now I'm afraid it may have been too big for him. Will BPs eat something that is too big for them to eat?

    Yes they will, how much bigger was the prey than the BP? He might be fine, just a little stuffed depending on how big it was. You might wait a while for him to digest a big meal like that. If it's TOO big, they'll possibly regurge.

    well, I guess stretched out it was about ass big around as he is, but thats just when stretched. For all I know it may have been about time to move him up in size anyway, it just looked really big comparitively. It also took him a couple strikes to kill it, which he hasn't had to do before.

    He will be fine, let him relax in his hide for a couple of days and he will be back to normal size in no time.

    I am still waiting on my PAM, but I've been doing Dawn treatments and cleaning his tank, and there are none visible. Still can't wait for the PAM
