    The short end of it is that I don't know. I don't have a tool to measure his weight accurately. And while this may be the most accurate way to measure the proper food, going by the girth and not feeding them anything larger than the widest part of their body is actually a good method that I've seen tested and done by successful BP owners with content snakes.
    only if you are capable of properly gauging the size, again hatchling out of the egg take preys much larger than fuzzy, so again that would mean your snake that hatched several weeks ago (at the very min) is dramatically smaller than an average BP out of it's egg.

    Here is a common mistake that newbies make they cannot gauge prey size and underfed their animal.

    But hey what do I know about feeding hatchlings
