    1 appropriately sized prey item is better than multiple smaller ones. A hopper or weaned rat weekly should suffice at this point (depending on her current weight.....a good rule of thumb is prey weight should be about 10-15% of the snake's body weight). Just because she's still looking around after eating doesn't necessarily mean she needs to eat more....snakes sometimes stay in feeding mode for days after a meal. Wild snakes don't have a meal tossed at them weekly lol.
