The general rule of thumb is to feed a snake a food item that is the same size or slightly larger than its head.
A four foot snake will eat two or three mice this size every 7-10 days. As the animal gets larger feed every 10 days.
If a meal is refused its not a problem offer again in a couple of days or if its "blue" then after its shed.
Mike.
