Oops , hit enter to soon , picking up at white plains expo on Sunday , thanks for any info , jamie

Just to mention , she hasn't popped since Saturday so her weight includes the 3 large mice currently being digested .

700g she should take weaned-small rats. Go by 15% of her weight...

You should be 10-15% of her body weight every 5-7 days. This would roughly translate to 73-109g if she were 730g empty.

Also would say small rats. My juvenile BP currently takes 1 small rat per week.

Thanks guys , I'm hoping the mouse to rat transition goes well .

Good luck! Let us know if you have any issues with the transition. There are lots of techniques, like scenting that usually do the trick.
