    Oh I forgot to mention that the next biggest size is 70 gram rats LIVE. Frozen rodents they have everything from pinkies to adult rats. Definitely need to switch over to frozen ASAP.

    When I heard what her weight is, I was thinking she might be a tad under weight, but then when I saw the photos, I changed my mind. I think she looks fine at this point.

    Yeah like Rob said, she has an "athletic" build lol
    I'm going to try and bump up the frequency of her feeding days and try to put a little more meat on her bones.
