How often should a 4mnth Bp defecate if fed 1 fuzzie mouse a week?

you should have gone to another pet store. That isway too big. The metabolism of a bp is so slow its going to use up all the nutrients from the rat digesting it! Please use some common sense next time

There are no other stores around that carry small or medium mice or rat pups around I think I mensioned that pretty clear in my past posts.This is the next size up. Fuzzies are too small so this is what she is gonna have to eat and I think she is fine.
And just to let you know if I wasn't using common sense I would of fed it a Hippo!!!

then 2-3 fuzzies work. but overfeeding doesnt. Im only trying to give you helpful advice to keep a healthy snake. You will be lucky if she doesnt regurge

It is going to use all of the nutrients from the meal it just ate to digest it???? Where the heck do you get that information from? That's just contrary to biology in general. I'm no specialist, but what you are saying makes no sense at all man. Use some common sense before posting next time.

Some of you may ask how come I didn move up to small or medium mice or rat pups and the answer is that at the Petco where I get my roddents from there are onlylarge mice or small rats. I bought one of each and the small rat was 80 grams versus the mouce which was 100grams.

You get 100 gram MICE at petco?? That's one huge mouse. To my knowledge a large breeder mouse is around 40 grams max. What kind of mutants did you find???

Hi,

It's a good sized meal it has to be said. I would be extra carefull her temps don't drop and give her as much peace as possible for the next couple of days though.

Gib,

Got any advice or do's/ don'ts for larger meals?

No regurgitation here . Ya , shes is gonna take a week off of handling and a nice nap like a "happy snake" LOL

I couldn't believe it myself the large mice they carry were bigger than the small rats and they don't carry nothing smaller.
