Honestly, and I'm in no way being mean here... I would seriously rehome him. It would be best for both you and the snake. By now he should be on adult rats not rat pups. If you can't get the appropriate food rehoming is best

I don't think adult rats are appropriate for any but the largest balls (depends on what you define as 'adult rat'). Is this a hatchling we're talking about?
