Our male BP has been home for just over 2 weeks. The breeder was feeding live rat pups and I have feed him live rat pups the last 2 weeks. My plan was to feed one more live rat pup before trying to switch him over to F/T. I wanted to avoid the stress of switching. I went to my source for rat pups today and they were out. They had one that had just weened and weighs 36 grams, just over the recommended size. When I brought the BP home two weeks ago he weighed 214 grams. I don't wont to feed something too big but based on the larges girth of the snake the rat should be OK. Should I feed the live rat pup I have or go pick up a frozen pup somewhere and start trying that today? Curious which option would be best. We haven't handled the BP any so I haven't weighed him since we brought him home, we were planning to start that this week after the 3 successful feeding.
Thanks for the thoughts.
