Be respectful and honest, and best of all persistent :) You will be fine.

    Good luck!

    Thanks! I will talk to her when I see her!

    Update: Great news! She returned today and I brought her the chart all nice and printed out. I told her I would like to use it and keep it in the feeding log and she said if doing it by weight was easier for me, that she had no issue with me increasing prey size. She said feeding is my job and if I feel they are under fed to do what I knew was best and just to exercise caution. 😅 I'm so relieved! Next feeding day will most likely be Friday since I am off Saturday so I will update again and possibly take some pics!

    Well, we understand the frustration. What's right is right. According to the chart the animals are being underfed and that leads to other neglectful patterns. Not blaming you but, this can be construed as a animal cruelty issue if this continues. The bp should at least get two fuzzies to be at the proper feeding amounts. Actually a adult mouse is a bit over but something the bp could potentially handle. :(
