Time to upsize

The last 2 times I;ve fed my BRB she's taken 2 adult mice. So I'm thinking its time to step up to rats. What size should get since shes taking 2 mice?

The general rule is your snake should be taking prey equivalent in size to the largest part of your snakes girth. It's impossible to tell without seeing your snake what size prey that would be.

I should be getting the pics I took of her back monday or tuesday and will post them. I'll also post her measurements with the pics.

I'm not at all familiar with rat sizes. What size rat would be about equal to an adult mouse?

I would start with a small rat, usually about 2X the size of large mice and adjust from there

Would you like the combo meal with your rodent?
