    Need Advice

    My brother has just switched over to small rats for his spider ball python I was wondering about how long will his snake stay on small rats until he is ready to switch to medium rats.

    You don't ever really have to switch up, as small rats are sufficient for most all Ball Pythons.

    I would say once the snake reached 1500 grams or so, you can try for mediums.

    O wow i never knew that okay so a small rat from rodentpro.com would be plenty until over 1500g and what is the feeding regiment for that every 7 days or 5 to 6 days
