    Feeding question

    My normal BP is up to 316grams... Adult mice appear to be too small at this point as she is coming out of the hide every 2-3 days looking for food... I want to switch her to FT Rats but not sure what size? Pups are too small! Any feedback would be appreciated!!

    You are going to want weaned rats or small rats.

    Small rats will be on the big side, and weaned rats will probably be a little small so you might want to start feeding more than one smaller rodent at a time until your BP is ready for small rats.
