Like their keepers, snakes will often eat more than is good for them if given the opportunity.

It's not greed so much as a feeding response. In the wild they don't know when their next meal will be, so will take advantage of what's available. If you put a lot of food in, the snake will eat as much as it can. This isn't such a good thing with a snake in captivity, however, as he won't have the chance to exercise by roaming around looking for food and can easily become overweight when fed a lot of food on a regular schedule.

Also, if it can eat three fuzzies at a time, you might want to get it moved up to hoppers once your fuzzies run out. Sounds like he's ready for them.
