If it's a baby - probably one small adult to adult mouse or rat pup every 5-7 days. As it grows and your prey items get larger you can switch to once ever 7-10 days.

Try to match the girth of the prey item with the girth of the snake at it's largest point. If you are using frozen be sure to thaw it out completely before feeding.

Congratulations on the new addition and good luck!
