Weights and Feeding
Spider Male: 104g
Pastel Female: 263g
I think I might have been underfeeding the pastel. She's been getting 1-2 small adult mice every 7 days.
What should I be feeding these two?

Re: Weights and Feeding
The rule of thumb i go by is 10-15% of their body weight and/or the thickness of the snakes girth at the widest part.

Yes I know that but what sizes would go with those weights?

Re: Weights and Feeding
Sorry, misunderstood. My ball weighs 170g and takes a large adult mouse so your pastel could take a small oe medium rat. The spider could probably take a hopper.
By large mouse I mean 30g.
