    Hoppers to rat fuzzies?

    My BP is now a tad over 2 months old and is 101g. When I first got her, she was about 73g and I was told to put her on fuzzy mice. I did for two feedings and realized that was too small. She has had hoppers the past two feedings, but they don't really create much of a "lump" in her. I'm thinking about maybe moving to rat fuzzies for a couple of weeks or until she gets up around 150g-200g. Does that seems appropriate? If what i can find is correct, rat fuzzies are around 15-20g/each which would be around that 10-15% body weight.
