RE: upsizing from pinkies

I dont think you should be feeding it 5 pinkies a week.

Why dont you try feeding it once a week, but something bigger, say velvet or weaner mice. My bredli started on one pinkie a week, and after 10 weeks, is now on one velvet a week.

Snakes dont eat every day in the wild, so once a week should be fine, just keep upping the size of the meal... weaner mice/adultmice/pinkie rats/weaner rats/adult rats and so on!!
