    130grams is a decent size medium rat and is about the largest prey that even a very big ball python will ever need in its life.

    To put things in perspective: I have a 10yr old, 1600gram male ball python that eats 70-80gram small rats every 7-10 days and he still will go on hunger strikes every winter.

    Get a 50-60gram rat and try that out. If it does regurge the medium you fed it, then give a few weeks off of food for its digestive tract to get back in order.
