He should be eating hopper mice, or rat pinkies. It may not seem like he can swallow them, but trust me... he can.

Wow, ok, NO hatchling BP should ever be fed pinkies( rats OR especially mice), they can easily take fuzzy rats (15-20g) right out of the egg. But I also feel that there is no way that a 100g ball, which is about 6 weeks old or so, would be able to take something as large as a 30g pup. I would feed him fuzzies until he can take two per feeding, them up his food item size to a rat pup and so on.... Good luck.
