Change in Feeding Behavior

[Bogertophis]

Thanks so much for your response! Typing it all out and seeing it on paper, I certainly felt a little silly for over-worrying. And yes, I have been sizing up her prey accordingly, but her past few rats are on the smaller side (around 50-60g) as I've yet to re-stock, is that okay? And that's the same size chart I've used as a guide since I got her, actually! There's really a great abundance of resources on here, and I'm grateful for the community!

No, it's not "silly" to worry, it means you care, & that's a good thing. Using up the rats "on the smaller side" is just fine, I'd do the same thing. No snake in the wild
ever has so much consistency in prey size as our pets do, & yet, they survive... If the prey is on the smaller side & only if she is obviously really hungry a few days
before her two week feeding interval, it's perfectly fine to feed her a little early...snakes do NOT need to be fed on an exact schedule...that's more of a convenience for
us, it just makes it easier to keep track of. But really, feeding every 2 weeks is just fine, even if the rats are a little bit smaller until you re-stock. A little hunger is
far more "normal" for a snake than being over-stuffed with food, especially since our pets don't get anywhere near as much exercise as they do in the wild.
