    How much does your BP weigh? Weight is more important than age it seems, when figuring out prey size.

    I usually just ball mine up with my hands and usually He'll stay in that position long enough to get a weigh.
    Or just get yours in ball mode and place it on the scale. Make sure it is a gram scale.
    If you don't have one you can easily get a kitchen one from walmart fairly cheap, but most only go u to 500 grams so you wil eventually have to invest in a better scale geared more towards animals or reptiles.

    When you have weighed the bp tell us the results! :]

    You should be feeding nothing wider than the thickest part of your snake
