feed the snake anywhere from 1 times it's biggest girth, to 1 and a half times it's biggest girth. Try to get him onto rat pups/fuzzies ASAP. You will see his growth explode! lol. You will know it's time to up the prey size when it either no longer leaves a lump, or it is extremely easy for him to take the prey down.

I'm with Sapphire, now that you've got him eating f/t, you're only half done. Getting him onto rats is the final step to becoming a happy ball owner.
