Re: aggressive when feeding
First, feed in your snakes enclosure. This greatly reduces the stress on the animal and the likelihood you get bit.
Secondly, at 350G, your snake should be starting to eat larger prey than mice.
See below for size of prey recommendations, although as the snake gets older, you can spread out the duration of feeding.
I would feed every two weeks as an adult and not feed medium rats until over 2,500G. Larger prey more frequently tends to lead to refusals with BP's. My girl, Shayna, is about 1,900G and eats a small rat every 2 weeks.
Anyway, at your snakes age and size, you should be transitioning to smaller weaned rats by now. The sooner you get him/her on rats the better too. They can get set on a prey item, like mice, and as he/she grows, rats are better for you. 1 rat vs. 3 mice, etc.
Good luck and keep us posted.
