okay so.....

My BP is about 30" long, he weighs around 700g. I feed him a f/t small rat or 2 large, fat live adult mice. To me a hopper is very small, about an inch long, about 12 to 15g. A 2-inch long mouse sounds to me like a small adult. It's hard to tell without seeing, I think that's why people go by weight on them.

But yeah, if she's acting hungry, feed her again.

welll my local pet shop calls them hoppers but yea they are about 2 inches in lenth so they are pretty much small adults and i feed her she took it allmost imeadiatly im thinking about upgrading her to large adults.

Here you can see what the different types of mice and rats are called, length and gram weight.

Goes both ways. I buy hoppers from a place that calls them "small mice." What I call a "small adult", they call a "large mouse."

It's one of those "go figure" things.
