    Insatiable

    My ball python has just outgrown the scale-he's a little over 500 grams.
    Right now I am feeding a 60 gram rat every 5 days. I am feeding this often because if I don't he starts getting very active, which I take it means he's hungry since he settles into his hide after being fed.

    I would move up to a larger food size for less often, but the next size up for rats is 130 grams and I think that's too big. Am I doing alright?





    Few crappy pics for reference if it helps (that is the 130g rat that I think is too big)

    For every 15-foot python out in the Everglades, there are thousands of species of clams, trees, cats, grasses and birds that are wrecking just as much havoc across the globe. So, for all the headaches the snakes are causing, I at least applaud them for being scary enough to get people's attention.
