    Cool video.

    On the food front if you feel they are between sizes it's usual to double up on the smaller prey - so 2 FG mice instead of one for a little while.

    Monty Video Update

    I always wait until they have completely swallowed and I see the food making its way to the stomach. Even with small meals you can see the snake's muscles/body moving the food down.
    Then I offer the second meal.

    Never had a problem doing this with my Ball, Boa, or Carpets.

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    I tried him on 2 mice tonight. If he had a middle finger it would have been very clearly sticking up at me
