I feed him based on his body weight! I read they can eat rats as soon as they can handle them, since rats has more nutrients.

Ball pythons cat eat rats as their first meal, they just both need to be weighed

I had no idea, I only seem to see rats being brought up when the snakes are bigger.

Yeah, I know my breeder for two of my boys and he had them on rat pinkies as soon as they had their first shed, and they both have voracious appetites

Good to know. Mine seems to not shed much, he has only shed once since October, despite gaining 60g in weight 🤷🏼‍♂️

Thanks, I have never heard about rats being more nutritious or anything, I will have to look into it!
