Go for something of similar girth to your Royal.
That chart is American, in the UK Rat Pups are smaller than Fluffs. |

I'm new to all this myself, but my Gladyssssssss is about the same age and has just started to feed on rat weaners, she was on large miced prior to this. She is around 23-24 inches long so probably the same size as yours - hope this helps. |
