Okay so 2/3 the length of the terrarium.. A 20gal?



I would guess that is around 14-16"?



So start him on fuzzies and try and bump up to hopper size mice in the nex two weeks.



It would be more helpful to post a pic and measure the snake to get appropriate food size.



One thing for sure is he is way past a pinky mouse size.



Aslo since he is that old, you will see a growth spurt from the much needed nutrition it needs. So feed him large and don't be afraid, they cannot choke on food like mammals and humans.
