    prey size for my babies

    Its been so long since I have had snakes this small but my babies are 2-3 months old and weigh right around 115 grams each. Im going to order some more F/T mice. I dont think what they are eating now is big enough...

    What would you recommend for snakes this size? Mice hoppers or weanlings?

    I would be able to determine if I could see them in person, I just dont want to order the wrong thing.

    Also I found this new vendor of frozen rodents, or at least new to me and they have everyone beat on prices take a look, this might save you some $$$ next time you buy...

    Re: prey size for my babies

    My babies that size are eating normal sized, medium adult mice. Definitely a no on hoppers or weans. TOO small. My Pin female is that weight and she gets 1 large adult and does fine with the size.

    Hope this helps...

    This above all: to thine own self be true,
    And it must follow, as the night the day,
    Thou canst not then be false to any man.

    Yeah, what they said! I like micedirect.com as well. Had a couple good experiences ordering from there. Brian from American Rodent Supply is excellent also (www.americanrodentsupply.com) as wel as www.bigcheeserodents.com.
