Most people seem to be feeding hoppers, or larger, to anything other than hatchlings but they seem too big for my snake. Can I try a pinky rat pup? What about a fuzzy rat pup?
You can certainly step up the feeding if you'd like to. You'd be surprised what they can actually take down. At 4 month of age, most babies could be eating live adult mice, so if you think its time to switch up, I'd go ahead and do so.
