    Where do you get live pinkies or fuzzies
    My bp was eating live adult mice when I got her and I think they are too big for her so Im trying to switch over to fuzzies or pinkies. She wont eat F/T, any ideas where to get live ones? I tried Petco, Petsmart, and Pet Supplies Plus.

    how bigs your snake? large mice arent too big... my babies have been pounding them since they were like 100gs... unless you have a new hatchling... i say stick with the mice.

    shes about 100gs. So you suggest just getting a small adult mouse like I have in the past?

    Go to your local pet store...most of them have live mice. Unless your snake is a hatchling it should be able to handle an adult mouse. Also you could try to convert it to F/T :)

    Yes, stay with adult mice. At that age, if they can swallow it, it's probably not too big.

    i alwyas thought that hatchlings could eat small mice right out of the egg

    The sooner you get them imprinted on rats as feeders the greater luck you will have with them excepting them. If you are having trouble finding rats then yes feed mice. I have a couple that will only eat mice...now they will eat 3-4 every meal and they grow just as well as my rat eaters. I have had trouble trying to get long term mousers taking rats on a regular basis.

    hope that helps
