    Is this normal?
    Hello,

    i was wondering if it was normal for a ball python to go through a rat pup in about a day? i would feed him and there would be a lump in his belly, then the next day it would be gone. is that normal?

    It means you should up the feeder size.

    No that's completely normal. How big is your ball?

    Hes almost 2 feet and at least over 116 grams. the weight wont be accurate because hes bloated right now from the fact hes about to poop.

    At 116 grams a rat pup is sufficient. Mine generally lose the "lump" after a day or two.
