Update on old feeding topic..
Well guys it has been a few months and I have steadily been feeding my big boy small 10g mice. he eats every 5 days no problem ever. Do you think I need to feed bigger mice yet? I dont really have a way to weigh him, he is about 5-6months old now. What do you guys from experience suggest?
I take a photo of every mouse he eats for my friends, they love it. I keep them here on myspace, let me know what you guys think of the size of mouse he eats.

I'm by no means an expert, but my BP is about the same size and has recently started eating 2 adult mice every friday. My snake doesn't have the girth yet for a small rat, but he isn't satisfied with one mouse either. He will stay out looking up and won't look for his hide until I've given him the second. See if you can get a Science teacher to let you use a triple beam balance to weigh him and the next meal.

you dont need to start on small rats, i use various rat sizes for my collection, you can switch whenever you want :) Rat pups, weanling rats and smalls are what i have for my guys ranging from 200g to 1400.
