Re: What kind of feeders?? Poll
Being new to this - I notice that folks are talking about feeding multiple mice. I've only been feeding our bp one a week. Is it possible that it's not enough? How does one know? He's about 2 years old.

As long as he is at a healthy body weight for his age, its probably fine. I've got a girl that would eat three or four small adult mice a week if I'd let her, and shes only about 7 months. At two years, your male could easily be eating two mice per feeding, or small to medium rats depending on his body weight.

I feed mice, ASF, and rats depending on what the snake will eat. I'd rather raise and feed rats (I really hate raising mice) so I try to get all mine on rats, but some are stubborn.

Does it depend on the age, or length? How can I figure out the healthy weight for my BP? The reason I'm asking is because I'm not sure how old he is.
