This is his first feed

Just want some opinions on the mouse size. You can normally see it in the snake after they have eaten but I can't with Garfield

Is it big enough

It doesn't look big enough. You want to be feeding close to but no bigger than 1.5 x the girth of your snake and that mouse looks less than 1 x girth so I would go for the next size up of mouse and see how that goes on the next feed.

Stupid question but what is the next size up. This is a small mouse. I'd say medium if there is such a thing ;)
