LOL - Kelf - I only quote Blackecho's feeding guide, which everyone knows ...

Yeah, 10/15% of the snake's bodyweight, under 400g feed every 5 days, 400-800g feed every week, it's a good idea to get a royal on to rats as this will be more practical when the snake's an adult - by then you'll be feeding one rat per fortnight - having to feed several mice would be fiddly.

Glad he's got the all-clear from the vet. All the best with him.

Bat's will be with you shortly i'm sure to explain feeding but until she's here.

I believe the guidelines say between ten and fifteen percent of the snakes bodyweight is the ideal weight for his food to be :D
