    Question first feeding questions....

    Tomorrow I plan on trying to feed Sebastian. He has never eaten prekilled before, so I guess I'm going to have to go the live route for now. What size prey should I try feeding him? He is 300grams, so I'm thinking a small rat pup, 3-4 weeks old... Does that sound right? If he doesn't grab it right away how long should I leave it in there with him for?

    Does it matter?

    I feed 300 gram ball pythons fuzzy rats ... 1 - 2 weeks old.
