    Good moooorning !!

    Quick question.

    Before we realized we were feeding the wrong size mice (to small) and switched to larger, my son had purchased a few fuzzies.

    If she looks like she's hungry in the middle of the week, can we go ahead and feed her these fuzzies just so we don't have to throw them away?

    She was out and cruizing around mid week this week and last night was feeding night. When my son fed her she seemed like she was really hungry. Took her all of 2 seconds to hit that mouse !!!

    Love watching her do that, it makes us feel so good we don't have to assist feed anymore. Just love this little girl.

    Newborn BPs can take larger than fuzzies straight out of the egg. You can mix them up, but I wouldn't do it in the middle of the week. I would say feed her a small one, then feed the second size which is proper for her.

    I wouldn't feed twice in a week, I would just add one each time you feed the appropriate prey until they're gone. It will probably just be easier this way as opposed to offering too often which can stress the snake.
