Is my male too small?
I have a male bp, he's always been on the small side. He eats a small rat once a week and he's 700 grams. Should I be feeding him larger rats? Is 700 grams normal for a small male?

Re: Is my male too small?
A picture of him stretched out would help with telling if he's skinny or not but here's a good chart to follow

How old and how long is he? My 7 year old is only 1100 grams so might not be that small.

His body looks fine to me! Some males are just smaller. He should be fed whatever size is suitable (smalls for now) and he will grow if he should. Feeding too large prey may just make him regurgitate it.
