Hi, I always feed my two bps on thursdays of every week. I have never had a problem getting either one to eat. I recently began feeding my largest bp two large mice at a time, and she takes both with no prolem, one after another. Last thursday I decided to feed her a small rat, which was only about a 1/4 inch larger the mice I have been feeding her, but she was afraid of it. When I put it in, she smelled it, but then it moved and after that she curled up and hid, and would not move at all until the rat was gone. Even after she hid from it, when I had it outside her cage, she was still trying to smell it, but inside her cage, she was scared. I'm worried that she will be one of those bps that only eat mice, and if so, is it ok to feed her mice for the durration of her life?
If so, how would I know how many to feed her?
