A ball python to reach full length/weight?

I feed my approxomitly 3 month old Ball a pinky rat and fuzzy mouse every week and she is 20 inches and weighs about 300 grams

they continue to grow their entire life, at 300 grams it sounds like your ball is easily ready for small rats.

takes about 4 years actually......you will think and be told 3 , but it's probably around 4 years they are the full sizes...

,....3 month old balls....feed them bigger than fuzzy mice and pink rats........don't know length and age but some of my baby balls were just thrown a hopper rat...weaned hopper rat yesterday.....I thought big but they ate them....oh...and they were just fed mice(24 day old mice probably) the day before....

...just feed them one item every week and they will grow...just make it a big enough whatever....mice or rats....either works....(mice eaters have muscle and rat eaters get huge with little heads) (it's ok...they don't go to school so the kids can't make fun of the rat eaters and call them Baby Huey and little head and pinhead and stuff like that....?...

.....try one bigger mouse or one rat fuzz (as large as you think kinda rat fuzz)....

...good luck

LOL......

if your ball python is weighing in at 300 grams, i would feed it a large rat pup. i start my hatchlings on rat fuzzies.

Thanks much!

Internet told me that she wasn't ready for fuzzy rats yet so thank goodness I came here!

I'll tell you guys how she eats when I get her that fuzzy
