I'm not saying you don't know what you're talking about. I just don't see how your 12in, 4mo-old baby could be eating rat pups when mine can hardly handle an adult mouse...

Am I really *that* off the mark on my feeding?
Wow... first, she said she was feeding weenlings, NOT rat pups.

Second, how did you feed your snake the wrong size mouse "by mistake"?

Third, do some searches, almost every experienced person here will tell you that fuzzy mice are too small for even a hatchling BP. You'd have to feed a few each week just to get a decent weight gain.
