How big was the fuzzy in comparison to the snakes girth and how many did you feed? |

That looks ok, I was worried when I upgraded Elijah and abother little bit of advice given to me was to roll the Fuzzie in a paper towel once it has thawed out, that should make it slightly thinner. Belive me, it works, I laughed when I first heard it. But as long as the prey item is no bigger than 1.5 x the width of snakes body in the middleish you should be fine. |

I was terrified giving Luna her first fuzzy because they seem SO MUCH BIGGER than pinkies! But she's fine with them and guzzles them quite happily |
