Just curious of what ya guys think.. This is Whiskey he is goin be a yr in the end of June.. He just shed this morning and eating like a dang Beast as usual.. This is his second feeding with 2 fuzzies you cant see the lumps in him right after feeding they are very faint.. think its time for something bigger? the pic of him in the corner of the feeding tub ( second pic ) is actually where the fuzzy is.. See you can barely see it... The pics do him no justice his color is so much deeper and vibrant.

Thanks Emily.. I had another snake a zig zag RO an I had named him sparks... LoL.. I love ur lil avatar.. Its hilarious but sooo adorable...
 
Definitely looks that way to me. Go with a mouse 1.5 times the width of the thickest part of his body.
 
If there's no lump after two fuzzies, it should be safe to go up a prey size. Are they peach fuzzies or regular fuzzies? How much do they weigh?
 
regular fuzzies.. Not sure how much they weigh I finally got me a job today so im hoping to get back on my feet an get me a scale soon..
 
I actually see a feeding bulge in the first shot. From what I see, the food you're feeding is fine. The "visible bulge test" is whether or not there's an easily visible bulge after 24 hours. If not, move up to the next prey size. If so, keep feeding the same thing.

As stated, prey should be no larger that 1.5 times the diameter of your snake's body at its widest point.
