I'm not sure how much Damien weighs, since I don't have a scale yet, but I know he ate 3 adult mice the other day, and he is getting bigger.

I was thinking of moving him up to small rats.
My only concern is him being able to swallow them.
He has a thick stomach and body, but I don't want to strain his "neck" too much. I know snakes are elastic in that area, but HOW elastic.

Am I worrying too much?
Just looking out for his well being. I love that snake!

thanks,
KOS
