Need some ball python help

[SatanicIntention]

You think a medium to large rat is a small meal?? What would she normally get? A rabbit?!

Go for a just-weaned rat. ONE of them. See how she does and in a week, give her another one.

She will grow and maintain her weight very easily on either 3 adult mice a week or a small/small rat. They definitely don't need large rats to maintain. That will just cause her to regurgitate again or just go off feed for a few months.

Opps. This is what I meant to say.

I will start out feeding her small of course, med to large mouse

If you are worried about opening the cut again, maybe try feeding two small mice? I have absolutely no experience as I have not actually received my snake yet, but it seems logical to me.

Edit: I know this isnt on topic, but I looked at your gallery and I have some suggestions for the enclosure you keep your ball in. It looks like you are using mercury thermometers, I'm not sure about the forum consensus on these, but a glass thermo filled with a toxic heavy metal doesnt seem like a good idea to me. Also, a dial humidity gauge is not the best choice either. I assume you are using an under tank heater, if not, you should, controlled by at least a lamp dimmer/rheostat, which are about 8 bucks at a hardware store or walmart. Also, for the temperatures and humidity, a very common unit on the forums is Acurite Digital Thermo/Hygrometer. It is about 12 bucks at walmart and reads 2 temps and humidity, with one of the temps being on a probe so you can measure ground temp. It would be best to have two of these, but one will suffice. Also, 1 log hide will not do, you dont want the snake to have to choose between a little security and thermoregulation. Try to get two identical, fully enclosed hides. These can be purchased from reptile shows or petstores if you want a more natural look, but a bowl or pottery dish with a hole cut/soddered into it will work just as well. There are some good stickies about this in the husbandry and caging boards. Hope this helps, and I'm not trying to be a stick in the mud, just wanting to let you know. Good luck with the regurge and feeding.
