Well today was feed day so i went to reptile shop and went to the freezer. Opened it up and grabbed the pinkies, got one and looked and thought hmm these are big pinkies! But thought nothing of it. Got home and went to give it to my snake and it looked massive.
After much hmmmm'ing and ahhhh'ing I decided to give it her. Well half way I started to panic as it was a lot bigger than a pinkie and thought oh god she isn't going to be able to eat this! Anyway after she constricted it a few times and about 15 mins later she got it down!
It was the worst 15 mins of my life wondering what to do. I thought god I can't get it out now! But what if she can't eat it? What if she regurges but can't regurge it out! But thankfully she's all fine now if not a little bit full! Think it was a fuzzie maybe? Looked like a pinkie but bigger! I think next time I'll double check before I buy to make sure it is deffo a pinkie!
Just one question, I think after that I'm not going to feed her for 2 weeks or would you guys say longer? I'll keep checking on her as well incase she regurges but she seems content enough with her dinner!

I have no idea, my petshops seems to have day old pinkies and pinkies that look 3 times as big as they day old ones in the same tub. As for feeding in two weeks time I would wait and see. |

Im not sure wether i would leave for 2 weeks, although that wouldn't do any harm. Maybe leave him around 7-8 days depending on how long he takes to digest it. Maybe leave it 10 days to be safe. |

well i think that maybe she might not need 2 weeks but if she is still digesting by wednesday then yes i would feed 2 weeks, missing one feed at that weekend will do them no harm, i once forgot to feed monty one weekend cuz i was ill  just fed him next weekend and he was fine. |
