But now I'm in somewhat doubt myself what to order. My stock is coming to an end and I need to restock on rats. My python is ~500g 9months old and i'm wondering if I sholuld just order 40-60g rats instead of 20-40g rats he's on now. He even munches on two of them sometimes.

What would be your suggestions. Should I buy the smaller ones and try to feed more than one or should I just go for the next size. He doesn't always want to eat two or more. Usually he doesn't care for another one after he ate the first
I think I'd go with those 40-60g ones. They are right on with the 10-15% rule...
