Currently he weighs in at 99g and eats two f/t 7g mice. I'm about to have to bump up as I really want him to put some more weight on but I'm a little overly cautious about giving him something too big for him to swallow. The 7g f/t look about the same girth as his widest point so I'm not sure what to do aside from just trying to feed him 3 next time.

Will I need to try converting him to rats as soon as he is big enough to swallow them or will I be able to feed him hopper mice (the largest mice size available here ) for a decent amount of time?
He can swallow appropriate sized rats now.
