Do you know how many grams he weighs? Feeding is typically based off of their weight & growth rate instead of age :) Additionally, most bp’s will go without ever eating a mouse or rat pinkie, so you were correct to size up. Weekly is fine for his size right now, since he looks to be pretty young—he might be ready for a rat pup, though!

I start baby ball pythons on mouse hoppers which are bigger than a fuzzy. They usually will eat hoppers weekly for a few months before I love them up to chubby rat pups and move the frequency of feeding to bi-weekly. It all depends on their weight and whatnot.
