    200g ball feeding schedule

    I have a 200g ball. I usually feed her 2 fuzzies per week. she's now able to eat small f/t mice. Should I still offer 2 times per week or now only once?

    Mine is a bit smaller than yours and eating FT adult mice up to 30g in size. How big are the small mice you have? If it's the size of a hopper (less than 15g) than yeah I'd probably offer a 2nd after it finishes swallowing the first. If the 2nd is refused though, wait another 5-7 days before trying again.

    Re: 200g ball feeding schedule

    My smallest BP is around 270g and taking a full grown adult mouse a week. Once they top 100g, I move from every 5 days to every 7 days and everyone gets ONE prey item properly sized.

    You should probably start getting him up to one adult mouse a week, what you're giving him sounds awfully small to me.
