You know, you hit on something. I am guilty of thinking caresheets are way off on rosy feeding "prey item no larger than their head" etc. Neonate rosies can take pinky rats, and pinky rats are huge.

This is what happens when you feed pinky rats (thawed in this case):

Sorry for the bad pic, but that snake was born a tiny 08 Whitewater, and that cage is 12x12, so you can see how big she is already. Huge meals.
