    Size of feeder advise please
    My almost 7m old BP who weighed 327g a month ago (need to weigh again) has been taking two live adult nice every 7 days with no issues. I feel she is big enough to start on a rat hoppy (?) as her girth is definitely that big around. But what about that slim neck and head? Do I need to worry about that? She's never had a problem with swallowing but it's just inconceivable that that huge rat can go past that slim elegant neck!

    Could you only start ine thread in the future? Aslong as the rat is the same or slightly larger than the thickest part of the snakes body she will have no problem with getting it down.

    As Masonic suggested, I agree. Those of us that are here to help usually do not search each individual forum to help those in need. It is common practice to use the "Home" button to see what threads are active. By making more than one thread on the same topic you end up wasting peoples time by having them answer something that was already dealt with but unknown to them because they didn't realize you have multiple threads. It also clutters the active threads kicking other recent threads off because you have several working threads on the same topic being answered by users repeatedly. You will also get better advice keeping to one thread because new discoveries may be made during the progression of the thread and its easier for us to help you seeing what others may have already suggested and asked. Searching each individual forum is more for reading up on things missed between visits. Better yet is the search option to pull up old threads.

    Anything that the thickest part of the snake will hold can pass through the snakes mouth and neck, its just a tad amazing.

    Whoa! You will notice on one of the other threads I apologize for multiple threads, I kept getting an error message saying it wouldn't post and then like half a dozen popped up. Again I did not do it on purpose
