    Re: Help with rodent size please

    Male 150 grams

    Right now I am feeding the female a large adult mouse. She takes them with ease every 5 days. I am feeding the male hoppers every 5 days, however, I feel he can go bigger.

    Advice would be appreciated as I've only been keeping BP's for 2 months now.

    Thanks
    Without seeing the snakes...

    I would say the male should be on rat fuzzies/pups and the female should be on rat weanlings.

    General rule is prey item no bigger around than the snake.
