    Try rats,I know pet stores that use mice instead of rats to slow growth.

    Im having the same problem, I tried taking her to an exotic animal vet but the lady wouldn't understand that i needed the a fecal test for internal parasites. Instead she wouldn't stop saying he didn't have mites witch is not what i was asking.Long day>:mad:

    I have a mouse eater also. They grow very slow. All my bp`s eat rats except my pied. I have tried and tried....will never give up but its frustrating. But my others that are almost a year eating rats are almost 650 grams. So Rats are the way to go.

    Was that vet specifically a herp vet? If they're not, they don't often know what they're talking about...
