    This comes from somebody who used to converse with Gus Rentfro somewhat regularly back in the day.

    I'm guessing with the 2 Rentfro Pokigron boas he owns and the other experiences he's had with boas the advice about mice is sound.

    Mice the first year certainly WILL NOT hurt anything.

    If you are not familiar with Gus Rentfro, he is a friend of Vin Russo and probably the biggest contributor to the locality boa world here in the US.

    I have a healthy boa because I was open minded enough to listen to some of the feeding advice BNS gave me years back.
