Thank you Dr. Del... Right now he's got belly heat under the hide to help out, and this big of a meal wasn't quite planned, I went to my normal spot to get a small rat, and I usually pick the smallest from their batch. But they were out and only had hoppers, fuzzys, med mice, and med rats, the guy working had seen my snake before and said he should be able to easily eat it, and he just grabbed one and threw it in the box, by the time I got home and saw it I figured it would be ok, I prescented the room and he came right out for his meal, by the time I dropped the rat in and saw how big it was compared to him it was too late and he struck and coiled like the killer he is... So I just let him do what he does best, I'm gonna give him a week break from eating and switch back to small rats... But he seems to be taking it quite well, he has been chilling in the hide, coming out at night to cruise, and drinking water, so no harm no foul... I just hope he won't be dissapointed when he gets a small rat next time LOL
