I've heard and read a few differing methods of deciding appropriate size of rats and mice for BPs and I'm not sure which to use.

One suggests feeding something no bigger than the thickest part of the snake. However, my BP seems incredibly skinny compared to some others on here, though he/she (not sure) is pretty long. Not sure if this is the road I should take.

I've read about feeding a rat or mouse that is approximately 10-15% of snakes body weight. This method sounds fine, but I haven't weighed my snake because he/she is in shed mode and isn't very.... um, nice right now.

Another post I read said that baby BP can take fuzzy mice right out of the egg. My snake is probably 22 inches and I'm still feeding him/her fuzzy mice. I bought some hoppers because I feel she could handle more but they seem so big. Then again...he/she is a freaking snake....they can put it away. Thoughts?
