Try not to feed your burm a meal that is too large, a good rule I follow is if you are feeding a large item to the snake make it at least the size of the thickest part of the snakes body, up to twice the size. Always provide a hide box as this will help keep your burm calm and handelable.

Burms should be started off with rat “fuzzies”. Never feed your burm live prey. Rule of thumb is to feed your snake prey items that are no bigger than the widest part of their body. They will start with rats and eventually move to larger items such as rabbits or pigs. They will eat prey items that are too big for their size but this can lead to regurgitation of the item. It is easy to overfeed a burm-they are always eager to eat. Feed enough to keep it healthy not obese.
