Food Size Question

[Bogertophis]

I appreciate the advice and definitely don't want to overfeed but more importantly didn't want the mediums to feel like it was too little for him since he's been on this size prey for awhile now.

I really doubt that your snake is "keeping score"- BTW, in case you're wondering- my BCI lived to 18 years- in her final years she moved in w/ friends of mine that are into the bigger snakes. (She was never a snake I planned on having- as a yearling, she was a "free to any home" rescue that no one else wanted because she was an accomplished "fear biter" with everyone- I changed that having understood she was just terrified- I had no bites from her, ever.)

I agree with Gio's post too- just another way to look at it. Changing up prey items is a good idea actually, to ensure maximum nutrients. I've worried less about that since I've always raised my own rodents (& supplement their diets beyond what most sources do). My BCI always looked pretty awesome (highly iridescent) & was always healthy when I had her- she would not have refused any alternative prey, I'm sure, but I just didn't bother. ("if it ain't broke, don't fix it")

And for what it's worth, I never weigh my snakes* or their prey either. (*unless I was trying to dose a medication- which I haven't needed to do in years)
