He is about 16" long.. weight unknown... He looks fat and happy..
Instead of feeding so frequently perhaps you should up your prey size. You can grab a digital scale for $20 from wal-mart to weigh your snake to help get a better idea of what size prey he should get. I was feeding my juvenile bp fuzzies for a few weeks when I first got him (fuzzy mice) and quickly noticed he was simply still hungry all the time. That was because I wasn't feeding him enough... I moved him up to hoppers that were about 20 grams and he was still hunting every few days so now he is at 30 gram rats.

It is also easier for you to feed a bigger prey item then several small, but of course it is up to you how you want to feed your bp. As long as he has a full belly and is putting on weight (another reason a scale is a good idea) then its all good.
