Hi All,

i have had my BP now for 6 months. for the last 3 months i have been feeding her 1 live adult mouse every 7 days (every monday) which usually weighed in at about 20-21 grams. she has never refused a meal and even has eaten through all her sheds. at her last weigh in, which i did last monday (before feeding her) she was at 540 grams. today i decided i will increase the prey size as in the most recent feedings she looks like if she stayed hungry. it seems the general consensus from reading multiple posts on this forum and many others is that prey size should be 10-15% the weight of the snake. the prey i purchased is a "small rat" which weighs about 31 grams (although it looks big to me). since this is the first rat meal i will be feeding her, would this be an appropriate feeder size to start the switch to rats?

as always any input is greatly appreciated.
