    Our snake was close to that weight at the time we got it. I learned the hard way that the hopper mouse I was told to feed it was waaayyyyyy too small.

    Based on rodentpro's sizes, you probably want a rat fuzzy and a small rat. Be sure to double check based on where you purchase your feeders, however, as the definitions of what size is what can vary widely.
