I normally feed my snake one mouse every 5 days. 3 days ago it was time to feed my snake and a buddy of mine that works at petco told me that the snake is big enough to take a small rat, so i bought one. the snake is 302 grams, 2 feet long and i think she's about 8 months old. anyway, i went to feed her the rat and she killed it pretty quick but it took her about 20 min. to swallow the thing. it's now 4 days later and the lump in her belly is just as big as it was when she first ate the rat, and her belly seems kind of squishy around the lump. is this normal? is she just taking longer to digest it because she's not used to such a big meal? any help would be appreciated.
