    Happy to report that my mice n rats are reproducing. But what has me irritated is feeding my yearlings and adults every 2 weeks. My yearlings do fed double every other week. I understand that all are opportunistic​ eaters. Can they happy with feeding schedule I have them on or should I buy frozen to feed weekly? My collection will eat frozen/ thawed and live.

    Adult males I may only feed ever 10 days, but I wouldn't feel comfortable with 14 without offering. Definitely not for juveniles. I feed every 5 days for BP's under 1000 grams. When you say they feed double what prey size are you feeding (grams)?

    I dont weigh the feeders. All my yearlings will take an adult mouse. My adults will take a small to medium rat. I am using adult mice for breeders. So at this time the yearlings are getting 2 hopper/juvenile mice instead of one adult.
