Hi! Our snake is ready to move up from rat pups, but the 2 stores that are anywhere close to us (less than an hour away) don't carry weanlings. The next size up is small rats. So I went there today to look for the smallest small rats, but they were all out of small rats.

In the meantime, is it okay if I feed rat pups for another few weeks and just feed every 5 days instead of 7? He just ate one and is still out and about. Could he possibly want another one right now?

Any advice appreciated. Thank you!
