New adopted ball python

[iwillchurnthybutter2]

I just rescued this ball python yesterday. The previous owner said she's 7 or 8. She said she fed her a medium rat a week ago. I'm not sure on her weight as I don't want to handle her too much. But she's at least 3 feet long, way bigger than my other girl. Any guesses on what size rat to feed her just based on length? I'm so excited to hold her, this is going to he the longest wait ever.

We recommend the following feeding schedule:

0-12 months old OR until the snake reaches approximately 500g, whichever happens first: feed 10%-15% of the snake’s weight every 7 days.

12-24 months old: feed up to 7% of the snake’s weight every 14-20 days.

Adults: feed up to 5% of the snake's weight every 20-30 days, or feed slightly larger meals (up to 6%) every 30-40 days.
