Feeding Dilemma...

I feed my bp on a 5 day schedule and tomorrow will be the fourth day. Im going to the reptile store tomorrow to exchange my light fixture and while I'm there i want to pick up a hopper. My question is, is it ok to keep the hopper in a cardboard box till tuesday? I can give him a little water dish and some bread? The reptile store is far from where i live so driving back the next day would be of inconvenience.

Im out running errands tomorrow close by the reptile store so i figured i can just stop by.

I would put that cardboard box in something plastic, mice chew.

I'd just feed him tomorrow... one days difference isn't going to hurt him.

Ok thanks. He just pooped today and last night, so he should be good to eat again :)

On two different occasions I've had mice chew out of those cardboard boxes, and they had only been in there for about forty minutes... So go ahead and feed a day early. :)
