Restless or just curious?

The only reason for a ball python to move around ALOT if they already have a hide/burrow/feel secure., is for food! the prey your offering might be snack sized?

That's a good point. Do you check the rats girth when they are stretched out? or do you weigh them? If the rat is sitting or laying kind of hunched up, it will look bigger. One other thing to consider, if you are kind of eyeballing the girth, is the rats fur will make it appear bigger than it really is...

The rat was slightly larger than the thickest part of his stomach.
