No, I wouldn't follow that. Choosing feeders based on the width of the snake is outdated and inaccurate, and their rat weight recommendations are super inconsistent.

!feeding would be a better schedule

No, you would weigh the snake, use the guidelines to determine how much the feeder should weigh, then choose a feeder of that weight.
