Just wondering about when you change the size of mouse the snake is eating and when to change over to rats??
I generally up the size once my Guy wolf's his feed down lickety split and there is no longer that "good" sized bulge in his tummy. I have only ever fed my fellow(up until last feed/shop ran out of his size rat so I went to a jumbo mouse)on rats but he has shown he will now eat either. I have read that rats are better for your snake as they are not as fatty.... correct me if I am wrong"oh wise ones" The first time I offer a bigger food item Gremlin usually takes a tad longer to get it down.....
Thanks for the link I appreciate it goes to show not everything you read is necessarily correct(tongue in cheek lol)I think you'll find that rats have a higher fat content then mice, this link will give you an idea on the nutrition,fat content..

Easy way to work out right size start with rabbit if it cant swallow go down to guinea pig then large rat and so on and so on until you find something that fits in his gob nice then bingo we have a winner
mmmm so if im looking for something to fit in my 6-8 month old can i just miss the rabbit XD and go from large rat
