How to choose feeder size

🐍Not sure what size to order?

Choosing the correct feeder size is essential for your reptile’s health and digestion. A good rule of thumb is to select a feeder that is about the same width as the widest part of your snake’s body. Feeding too large of a prey item can cause regurgitation, while one that’s too small may not provide enough nutrition. Learn More Here

Why Our Frozen ASF Rats Outperform Other Feeders

✅ Biologically Optimal for Adult Snakes

African soft-furred rats (ASF) are native to the same African regions as ball pythons, making them a natural, instinct-recognized prey. Their lean muscle mass, balanced calcium-phosphorus ratio (1.5:1), and soft fur promote smoother digestion compared to fatty Norway rats or coarse-furred mice.

✅ Ethically Raised & Nutrient-Dense

Stress-Free Breeding: Our ASF rats are raised in spacious, hygienic habitats with minimal handling to ensure low-stress lives.

Superfood Diet: Fed organic seeds, eggs, and antioxidant-rich berries for maximum protein (18%), taurine, and vitamin D3.

Pathogen-Free Guarantee: Humanely euthanized and flash-frozen to lock in freshness while eliminating Salmonella and parasites.

✅ Perfect Size to Prevent Regurgitation

ASF rats that match the girth of a ball pythons or corn snakes, reduces the risk of regurgitation. Avoid underfeeding with smaller mice—one ASF rat provides complete nutrition per meal.
