    People on here have shared that feeding chart, because it's tried and true. You're not doing your snake any favors feeding prey smaller than they can eat fresh out of the egg. Again, not trying to be a jerk, just trying to help you and your BP.

    But, your snake, so do what you feel is best...
    I totally get it and I will definitely be feeding bigger prey next time. I was sort of between a rock and a hard place today because it was all they had. Next time I will be better prepared. I know it was less than ideal but I’m just glad to have her eating something. I definitely want to do what’s right by her
