Finally took a f/t mouse!
So after two or three months of live feeding adult mice my new bp, I tried feeding him a leftover ft fuzzy mouse. Rolled it in mice bedding, heated it up, and he instantly grabbed it and ate it (yay!). So I have another two fuzzies in the freezer, and two live adult mice. My question is this: what should his feeding schedule be from now on? I would like to just feed him ft mice, and eventually rats. Should I just feed him ft from now on? He weighs 166g. I wouldn't mind putting a bit more weight on him, he was a bit thin when I got him.

If he took F/T I would stick to F/T. However, fuzzies are WAY WAY too small for a BP. BPs eat hoppers right out of the egg for their first few meals only and quickly move up to small adult mice.

If your looking to get it on rats id get it switched now. Bp can be extreamly stubborn the sooner the switch the better. Also this is a great chart. people on here showed me it. And i would stick with f/t now that its willing to take it.
