question about prey...

Okay so now my new boy zeeke has had two f/t feedings w me so far I. He took med size mice but now the only store close to me only has hoppers or adult size mice.. would the hopper be ok or should I get the adult size idk really I reallly really don't want to create any probs w him feeding because everything so far has been going great with him tonight is feeding time for all my snakes I appreciate any and all help

How much does he weigh and how much do the hoppers and adult mice weigh?

Maybe buy a couple of hoppers and feed him both.
If you think he can take an adult though go for it.
How much does he weigh?

Last weight was 241grams about a week ago.. also I have no way of knowing about how much the mice weigh I have to get from a shop I'm waiting on the next Taylor show to stock up on everything

You'll be fine with an adult mouse.
My female weighs these same and she's been pounding large mice since she weighed like 150grams.
I just switched her to rats but yeah different story lol

Okay good to know thanks so much :)

x2 id just go with the adult mice. If youre worried about over feeding you could feed every 10 days if you want. Or if you have him on a 5 day schedule move him up to a 7 day schedule. Either way he should be fine :)

X3 on the adult mouse.
