    Re: What's going on with my Hogger?

    I did hear you correctly. What I was suggesting is that you feed him 2 every feeding, instead of 2 every third feeding. I just didn't word it correctly. As I stated before, I hve two males that were born October of 07, and both are feeding on fuzzies, and have been for a time now. Here is one of them.

    He is 30g, and this pic was taken last week as he chowed down on his fuzzy. He did not start feeding until he was almost two minths old, so he was a late bloomer as well.

    No. You got your Hogger sometime around May '08. I got mine in mid November '07.

    That might be a managable size for my WHS. One thing to note is that the pinkies I feed my Hogger are not that small like the one on the bottom of that photo. They're white-ish and fat looking like the one on the top of the photo.

    Re: What's going on with my Hogger?

    Not necessarily. My pinks are the extra small pinks. You can get xsmall, small, and lg pinks. Then it goes to fuzzy. Large pinks and some reg pinks are whitish, but still lacking any fuzz. The size differences in the different pinks are miniscule, but when you are talking about feeding 4g snakes, those differences are a big deal.

    But there is no fuzz! It's just a really fat white baby mouse! The package that has the mice that I feed to Charon is labled "50 Pinkies". Either it's mis-marked, or they're just really fat pinkies.

    Re: What's going on with my Hogger?

    Sounds like you have the normal or large pinks. Fuzzies are....well fuzzy.


    Hey Ryan, what does the member #6667 refer to in your sig?
