    I would personally try to acquire some rat fuzzies, and finding a breeder in your area for feeders will be a huge bonus as he grows.

    No breeder or store in my area has rat fuzzies right now they only have small medium and large rats and pinkies they have more mouse options but idk he’s always been feeding on rats and if I switch it may be hard to switch him back what size should I do? I have mouse fuzzies and a rat pinky with us probably the same size now that I think about it

    Stick with the rats, check Facebook for local reptile groups to find feeder breeders.

    As for the roaming, you're probably missing most of it, but not to worry, as the addage goes: a hiding BP is a happy BP.

    As for feeding, I would stick with the rat and order some feeders online if you can. The upfront cost seems like a lot, but WAY cheaper in the long run.

    And, as much as I love your background art as well, darker is better.

    Okay I’ll get black construction paper and draw trees in whole crayon got it but as for feeding I have called everywhere and no one seems to have the right size they all have pinkies and small rats up but not fuzzies should I just feed him the rat pinkie and move up next week? And when I move up should I do a rat pup or a rat fuzzy

    I would feed the rat pinky and go from there. As far as what size next, what does he weigh?
