Ball python feeding help

Is feeding my big 1700g girl 2 small rats a week too much? Because i just fed her one and she is looking for more.

do you know how much the 2 small rats weigh together? Most people feed bigger, more established animals 10-15% of their body weight. 15% of 1700 is 255, that sounds pretty good, small rats are like 80-150 grams or something? (depends on the supplier). Some people move thier big girls up to mediums i think.

i know but my place was out of medums they weigh about 55g so it would be ok to feed 2?

(2 for every 7 days)
