15-20% if I want a snake to grow, 10% if I am happy with their weight but want them to gain slowly, less if I want them to hold their weight which is adjusted based on if they start to lose or gain more than 50g.
As for size: Hopper Mouse, Mouse, Weanling Rat, Small Rat (45-84g). When any of them hit over 2k I may think of getting larger prey than Small Rats.
Works for me, none are too thin, they dont struggle to swallow, and they will almost always take whatever is offered to them.
Well, 20 is tiny... But my one female that is at 1700g (full) right now is eating 3 small rats/feeding
