Hi I have a 3-4 ft ball python, he wont let me get a good measurement 8(.

right now i have him eating 2 adult mice once a week. i skipped this weeks feed cause hes shedding (its not going good either).

anyways i am thinking he needs to move up to small rats, problem is he eats live. does anyone have any experience feeding live rats? they look pretty nasty with those teeth and claws.

but maybe hes fine with 2 mice a week? heres a picture of him any help is appreciated.
