We adopted a 3 year old ball a month ago. Last night he fed for the first time I was concerened it would gross me out but man what an awesome snake. The lady who had him first told the people at PetCo that she fed him one medium rat a month. Although it seems to me a small rat once a week would be better for him. He seems to have adjusted to us real well. He's very comfortable with us and we are certaintly enjoying him. After he feeds should we leave him alone for a couple of days? The rat was small so he doesn't have a bulge or anything, but I don't want to mess up his digestive process. I'm learning more and more about him but am still a novice. Could use any inside info experinced owners could give. Thanks
