Feeding two rats instead of one
So, here is the situation. My rescue girl is almost 500g and is eating weaned rats. I am planning on moving her up to small rats when we are through with the rats we have. The last couple of feeds (which we do every 5 days) she eats and then immediately starts searching. She never just goes to her hide to digest. She seems, to me, like she is still hunting even right after eating. So, my question is, can I feed her a second one at the same feeding? If so, how do I go about doing that?
Thanks,
LadyByrd

Just warm up two rats to the right temperature. Feed her one, and then once she's done with that one offer her the second one. If she takes it, then she was still hungry. Don't ever string food together by shoving the second rat into her mouth while she's swallowing the first rat.

I'm working on a Snake Tracker App! If you have any ideas or suggestions on features, feel free to post them in the Development Thread! I'll also be posting updates on the development of this program in this thread!
