Over fed..oopppsss

So my book keeping skills arent that great....I'm a stay at home mom....my mind is bound to give on occasion...thank god no one is dead yet is all I say.
But I have this chart I keep everyone's information on: Feedings, Cleanings, Sheds etc. Well I forget sometimes to write these things down and forgot I fed Rajiv last night...well tonight I throw a rat in there and he eats it...and then I realize I have one small rat and 2 hungry snakes...first thought "One rat got out" lol....Second though "Oh god...he didnt just eat ANOTHER small rat"
So now I have one stuffed snake...2 hungry snakes....and one small rat....fantastic. Wonder what the odds of him a) regurging or b) fasting are.....

I need to get those little charts and put them right on the stinking tubs...who has these and where can I get them...really where can I get the clear covers for them.....I can make my own index sized info charts.

just dont feed him for the next one or two feedings. he'll be fine. the hungry snake/s will be fine also.

I would also like to know where you can buy the clear sleeves for index cards.

cut the last rat in half.. long ways!! kidding!

You can get those ruled small card stock things from any office supply store (for recipes, etc.) to keep notes or you can use something like www.degei.com which is a great way to quickly note who was fed, who refused, who pooped last, sheds, etc. I love my degei (and it's free to try).

I use a little notebook for each snake. I record dates for feedings, sheds, poo, pee, urates and weights. For a small collection it works great.

you dont HAVE to skip a meal, just cuz you doubled this one.

How big were the rats he ate? how big is he?

What size snake is it ?

I bet it will be fine :)

He is about 3 foot...now I havent weighed him in awhile so I couldnt tell you his weight.....I dont like feeding him small rats....but being that Petco doesnt have any "small smalls" I was doing it, then I found that crappy pet store I told everyone about and found some smaller then small rats there....of coarse he took the small small and then ate a plain ol small rat.....well if he wasnt hungry he would of taken it right?

I will offer him food next week..he's a growing boy after all lol.

Also, I looked on OfficeDepot.com and couldnt find those card covers...I dont really know what to call them so I think I typed in "index car cover" or something along those lines...didnt find what I was looking for though :(
