    Haha a breeder. We have never purchased a snake from a pet store. And now we make our own baby noodles!! He has been one issue after another that guy. He has cost us a lot in vet bills. His mice have to be heated to an EXACT temperature or he won't touch them. He will never be more than a pet, the others all are in line or are being bred....not him. He has a special spot in my other half heart lol

    And about switching - good luck feeding him six seven mice at once later on

    OK, thank you for your concern. I dont have access to a wide variety of rats but I will see what I can do. He's 300g. Also, to clarify, he ate those two small mice on two separate feeding occasions three or four days apart not at the same time.
