You want to feed something that is about the same size as the widest part of the snake once a week. A good size meal will live a mild, but noticable lump in the belly. If you arent getting much of a lump then its time to move up. Most baby bps are able to eat full grown adult mice within a couple of months. This is the main reason the rat suggestion came up. Within a short period of time a single adult mouse will not be an adequate meal for you snake, and its just easier to feed a single appropriately sized rat once a week then 3 or 4 mice.Originally Posted by Tiffanie
Love threads for this purpose... You learn so much and get some great hints. Thanx!! I was hoping to switch him to frozen mice. Any suggestions for that transition? Also, one hopper one a week should continue until what age/size? Boston was born July 4th and has been eating live hopper move every week since hatch. Thank u again for the advice
