Here is my situation. I recently took a ball python from my friend because she wasn't caring for him properly.

Although his age is unknown since she got him from a science teacher, he is definitely an adult and is about 4 feet long.

This poor guy was being kept in a 20 gallon tank the entire time he was in my friends care which was at least 3 years.
The cage was disgustingly filthy; tons of poop, old sheds, hadn't been cleaned in god knows how long.

On top of all that she was only feeding him once every few months.

Since taking him in I've upgraded him to a 40 gallon tank, and feed him every 7-10 days.

My question is since he has always been fed mice, how many should I be feeding him? 3 mice every 7-10 days? More? Less? Opinions please!
