hatchling/juv same thing.
I keep everything small for the first 12 months at least, as i belive this is when their organs etc need time to develop propally, if feed to much or to often at this stage i truley belive you run the risk of cutting the snakes life expectancy in half and or causing lots of problems in the future.
They have evolved to spend most of their life with a completely empty tract, yet in captivity most people keep their snakes full most of the time with out any metablic rest, a recipe for disarster imo.
