I watched it. For your question an overhead view would have made it easier to get an idea for the two sizes. But it was a good idea. He had a nice feeding response.
The reason it was a bit of weird angle, I originally made the video for a friend who wanted to see the snake feed, but then I thought it would suit the question I wanted to ask, he fed 4 weeks in a row refused 2 rats but from today he has now fed 7 weeks in a row.

I know it is so annoying, I have brought my self to the conclusion of him only liking rodents with fur, I tried him with rat pups and fluffs which have barley any fur.. I know this is probably not true but its what I tell my self lol

Edit: I just watched the video. That looks like a bit of a small enclosure to me. What size tub is it? At least from the video it doesnt look long enough to provide a good heat gradient.
I cant remember what size the tub is I am from the uk so the 16qt and like 41qt have no meaning to me, like they do to you lol.. it think its a perfect fit he can fully stretch his body and he never seems to be stressed at all the video does make it seem a little small i noticed that myself also

For a while my very first ball python would eat 6+ mouse pinks because she was too chicken to step up to fuzzies. I was wondering if she hated anything with fur for a while haha.
