    I try to break it down by a basic 10%. 270 is 10% of 2700 and then just add 270 to 270 = 540. Kinda weird I know, but I do a lot of math in my head and I always try to break it down as simple as possible.

    I do the same thing. Move over the decimal point and then add.

    If youre doing this to figure out what size rat to feed, dont go by that rule.

    What should I use to judge it then? She's a big girl, so I'm sure she can take down pretty much anything. I just weighed her empty at exactly 2700g. Trying to fatten her up a little so she can make me some babies!!

    2700g is plenty big to lay eggs! The 10%-15% rule is really for babies. I'd just feed her a medium rat (or large if she's really thick around).

    Yeah I think a large rat is good, she's not too long, so a lot of her weight is girth!!
