[QUOTE="Wolfgang5, post: 2543445, member: 48226"] My Darwin was similar size to this when I first got her, she was apparently a slow feeder and when I bought her home at around 5-6months she was barely eating one pinkie a feed, after as much research as possible, I decided to try a furry mouse and test different sizes out, eventually I hit the jackpot when she launched at her chosen full adult mouse and never looked back, approx 3 or 4 feeds later we moved her onto similar size rats and upgraded her food as she grew. I have since learnt that pinkie mice have very little nutritional value for a young python and that even the smallest carpet will eat a full grown mouse, sometimes more than one, but please do not take my word as gospel, do your own research and make your own informed decisions. Good luck with your new friend. The first picture is of my girl when she first started eating full grown adult mice, and the second is an example found here on aussiepythons. [/QUOTE]
