Just remember that they can take things bigger than the widest part of their bodies, Don't let their tiny heads fool you. When you feed him, you should see a noticeable lump in the belly. If you don't, then its time to up the size of the prey item you're feeding.

See what happens next time and go from there.

Re: No Eating for 2 Weeks..?

oh i'm definitely feeding him things bigger than he is... i think he just knows i'm feeding him frozen food haha. i'm convinced he's really smart. i'm betting the smell of live mouse/rat in the feeding tank helps a bit, too. but yea, i'll see in a few days. i'm gonna buy some forceps today fun fun.
