    Should be fine, depending on how big the mouse is. Your average adult mouse should be good, though.

    If you have a scale, weigh the mouse and go from there. Usually the general rule is 10-15% of the snake's body weight.

    No need to weigh it :rolleyes:
    Just take a good look at it and you can tell....but you should be ok. When I got my albino (73 grams) he was slamming rat pups
