Thanks for the replies. I actually came back on to edit my post cause the only time I fed him outside his viv was when I assist fed. And it's not something I done lightly, he was starting to look thin and after watching a ton of YouTube vids quite a few said when they're that young they shouldn't be going so long without food. I would expect fasting from an adult during winter or whatever and wouldn't worry so much. Anyways, yeah I think he could go up a size but the only reason he's being offered rat pups is cause the guy who gave me him didn't tell me anything as to what he was eating so I didn't wanna offer something too big just incase.
What I'm looking for though is advice on what to do from here? Will I just offer in his viv like I was doing before the assist feed? Should his feeding response kick in?
And I live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I used to work in a pet shop selling hamsters and rats etc and we were told then not to sell animals to snake owners as it's illegal to feed live. Plus I'd be uncomfortable doing it anyways!
