    Can i feed my baby ball python 2 small mice in one feeding?

    Someone bought me some small mice for my small ball python, she is less than two feet I would say about 17 inches, I have usually been feeding her pinkie rats and these mice look about half the size of the pinkie rat, I believe they might be fuzzies, but will I be able to feed her two of them or should I just feed her one and buy the pinkie rats later. I'm pretty new to snakes, this is my first one.

    Pinkie rats are too small for your BP. Even hatchlings are able to take rat pups or small adult mice. Sounds like you're feeding her too little

    I think Dezoruba Means rat FUZZIES. Rat pups are usually between 20-30 grams (too big for a small hatchling), while rat fuzzies are between 10-20 grams.

    What does your snake weigh?
