Breeder was alternating him on f/t medium mice and fuzzy rats. I didn't have access to these sizes initially so I purchased what was sold to me as small mice (far left in photo). Then the following week grabbed fuzzy rats (far right) and what was sold to me as med-lar mice (middle). As far as keeping it the same I think I will elect to go with the fuzzy rat although I have learned that they don't carry as much nutrition f/t as live.
The med-lar mice look a little big, the small mice look a little small, fuzzy rats right in between. A previous user mentioned that the med-lar mice/fuzzy rats may be to big but that was before I posted the images. I haven't fed a snake in many years and the last was a well off adult python so I'm not too certain on what size to feed my small 9 mo old boa.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
