If your snake is as big as my two year old, I would say yes. A general rule to follow is, your food should not be bigger than the biggest part of your snake. Does your snake eat live or frozen?
Hope it helps,

I feed it live mice because it stopped eating frozen ones.
Are you going to feed live rats? I have a feeling that this is going to be my only option. I am not looking forward to doing this because I have heard that this could cause damge to the snake. Do you have any exprience in this area?
