That is not worthy of an urgent NEED HELP title lol. Feed him nothing bigger than 1.5 times the size of the thickest part of your snake.


0.1 normal (Miami) - Hugo
0.1 hypo Motley - Spunky
0.1 MBK - Tequila. RIP

A fuzzy isn't going to kill your snake unless someone has sneakily sold you an ACME mouse and the tail is slowly burning smaller and smaller.

As above the mouse you feed can be upto 1.5 times the thickness of your snake at its thickest point.
