Switch to rat pinks and see what happens!
 
That's impressive - though my experiance is limited, when my anery ate an adult mouse for the first time she ate one, and then struck at the other one when I was picking it up for the other snake... She downed it without any problem (no regurg or even stress... and the LARGEST poop on the face of the planet)... but the large bulges never went away - meaning she retained the girth which caused a substantial growth spurt! Now she has a constant well fed look that I think is very appealing on her. Better than her rigid apperance before!

Keep up the good work - Sounds like you're doing the right things!
