My sweet valentine switched to rats without a seconds hesitation! I bought one on a whim because she wouldn't take 2 mice but I could tell she needed something to keep her a bit more stuffed. We missed her feeding day and fed instead today, it was literally barely dangled and she nailed it hard enough that I let out a gasp.
Anyways I guess this is kind of a brag post about what a strong eater she has been since the first time, she even eats in deep in blue. If she was underfed before would she appreciate the food more maybe? Now that she's really grown I expect the dreaded winter fast but I'll enjoy her feeding success as of now :)
