When I fed my snakes, within 24 hours, the mouse is gone.
I feed them pinkies, and both of them eat them like champ.

Alexandria is close to 16" and Ophion is close to 15".
I was wondering if it's time for fuzzies for them?
I don't have digital scale, I just wanted to see if you can
tell by the measurement and the "lump" of mouse just disappear
within 24 hours.
 
It is too difficult to tell by length what size prey you should feed your snakes.

The guideline is that you should only feed them prey that is 1.5 times the thickness of your snake at its thickest point. Anything bigger could be dangerous to your snake. Unless you get a scale this is all you can go by. My suggestion is to feed them double pinks for a while.
