I am one happy BP mamma!
As many of you know, I rescued a 6 month old, 44g female normal BP July 5th of this year. I've been feeding her every 4-5 days and although her meals have been on the small side, she's eaten like a champ. I just switched her to rats one feeding ago and she ate it quicker and with more gusto than she was with the mice. I weighed her today and she's already a whopping 70g! I couldn't be more happy with her weight gain. This is my very first BP ever and I guess I'm doing something right! Just had to share

Once on Rats and feeding every 4 days you will start to see some weight !!
If you want to give her a break you can alternate it 4 days even months 7 days odd months
Good Luck
And Gratz
