My male green anaconda is around 3 ft long and has a diameter of around 1.5". I have been feeding him 2-3 frozen small adult mice about the size of his head every 5 days. The pet store's next closest sized frozen rats are about 5 inches long and 2 inches wide. Which would you guys reccomend feeding to him.

Anacondas are deffidently able to adjust to larger prey. Mine right now is eating f/t 1.5-small 2 lbs rabbits with no problem. But if you are feeding mice to your conda, deffidently switch to rats, mice have barely any nutrition in them for the snake, rats have 100x more nutrients. I would deffidently recommend switching to rat pups-small rats. Hope this helps
