 BP feeding questions

Hi. I’m new to this site. I have a BP that I got a little over 2 months ago from a local pet store. They were not sure how old he was when I got him. I’ve been feeding him thawed frozen fuzzies every 7 days. He eats with no problem. When should I move up to small mice? The guy in the pet store gave me a pack of small mice to try and feed him, but I want to make sure that he’s eady. Any suggestions?

He should habe been moved up already, fuzzies are not appropriated for a BP, most hathcling are started on hopper mice and quickly move to adult mice.

Feed a prey slightly smaller to equal to your snake girth (widest part of your BP’s body)
