How Many Mice/Rats Do You Feed Your Snake??

[200xth]

Right now I have an excess of frozen rat pups that average around 29g. The ones that should be eating around 60g get two of the rat pups to help get rid of them.

The others all get 1 appropriately sized rat.

EDIT: Ahh...didn't realize this thread was that old.

Here's a question I have...is it better to feed multiple feeders (in my case rats) on the same day in a given week than feeding the same number of feeders on separate days in the same week, based on a snake's size?

for example, let's say your snake is 250 grams and you feed it a 25-30 g single rat pup every week. When the snake reaches 500 grams, you'd feed it more, but is it better to feed two 25-30 g rat pups at the same time, or space the two feeders 3-4 days apart ? I guess the answer would depend on what's more beneficial to the digestive process, but I'm not sure...
