When to feed again?

[RR - Mackenzie]

My snake ate two frozen/thawed adult mice for me yesterday after not eating since November.

Anyways, I thought he would be in his hide for a day or two. Not at all. He was out looking for food, again! I removed him from his cage, because I thought maybe he urinated or something. Not at all. I placed him back in his enclosure, and he was looking around again.

Anyways, since he absolutely refuses rats, we are going to buy 10-15 adult mice today from SuperPets (their feeders aren't disgusting, and they don't 'squish',). I was wondering should we feed him again? He doesn't have a bump on him at all anymore, so I think he is still hungry.

Would feeding him again today be bad? He looks hungry, and he has only had two frozen/thawed adult mice since November. I don't think that would be over-feeding him, but I'm not too sure. I really want to get him back up to weight, but I don't want to over-feed him at all. I think it should be fine, but I just wanted advice from people who have had this issue before.

Thanks

Feed him again in a week, he needs time to digest before feeding him again or it's a constant stress on his system. Also don't handle him for two days after eating since it can cause a regurge. My male didn't eat for almost 5 months last year and is packing on weight pretty fast now that he's eating again on normal weekly feedings.
