About this feeder
Honest details, in plain English.
Pinky Rats
Pinky rats (newborn, hairless) are the smallest frozen rat size — ideal for juvenile ball pythons, small king snakes, and hognose snakes that have graduated from pinky mice.
Feeding tips: Thaw in warm water (never microwave). Offer with tongs — never hand-feed. Prey width should match the widest part of your snake's body. Feed juvenile ball pythons every 5-7 days, adults every 10-14 days.
