    Yep, he was fed on August 9th. I figured between the bigger meal and the move to my place that he likely wouldn't feel like eating for more than a week, so I figured this coming Monday would be a good time to try feeding him.

    As for the rat size - I thought that you were supposed to feed them a rodent that is 10-15% of their body weight, meaning a 150g(ish) rat would be good? Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's what I've picked up from the caresheet and various other sources on this forum. Plus I found a nifty chart someone posted at one point that indicates a medium rat is perfect for him.
