One of my snakes is on small mice, but he doesnt seem to be bulging as much as he used to, i have a medium mouse there for him, would it be worth trying him on that, is there any down side if the mouse if to big will it do him any harm |

general rule is one and a half times widest part of snake, if you have the next size up try it, if too big dont think he will take it or he might regurge. But i think you should try it |

Glad it went ok, it can be a bit nerve wracking going up a size! |

its the first time i have gone up a size, looks like im gonna have to buy some more medium mice, as he kinda gave me a knod to say thank you for it.
just means i will have to get a ghost or lavander morph to eat the small mice that i have left. |
