fortunately I know my dogs not like that he doesn;t tug on anything but in hindsight I wouldn;t do that again
I have no idea of exact age but the guy I bought him off said about 3? He just over 3ft long andseems to be getting slightly thicker since I had him |

| I'm sure you know your dog, but we have no idea how they'll react to being bitten on the nose by a snake. Anyway, enough about the dog, lovely snake, how much does he weigh? |

I weighed him a month ago Blackecho and he was 680g according to my analogue scales but I ain;t sure how accurate they are
He looks to me a bit chunkier than he was when I got him |

He's far too big for mice really.
You could try defrosting one of each together in a bag and give them a good rub together so that the rat has mouse scent on it.
If he still doesn't want the rat, offer the mouse first and then the rat straight after. |
