Uhm yeah I'd say that's pretty big for her. She also looks really thin in that pic (maybe it's just the lighting? pics of her in normal lighting would be good) You'll maybe want to get some hopper mice at another pet store and feed her one every five days until she bulks up.

Ok. That's what I thought.. The rodent looked smaller until I dropped it in with her! She is really thin. Won't touch f/t's. Resorted to feeding her 3 pinkies a few days ago, but it didn't even take her 2 days to poop 'em out... Couldn't be much nutritional value there.. There is one other pet store in town. It's a little nasty place some lady runs out of her house, but maybe she'll have some lil' mice...
Close to twice the size you should be feeding. If you need smaller feeders and plan on feeding exclusively live, You may need to consider getting a male mouse along with a couple females and breed your own. You'll have appropriate sizes and potentially save a few bucks.
Quick update... Went to the other pet store in town and they have an ENDLESS supply of rodents in every size! Picked up a hopper mouse and she struck within 10 seconds of it being dropped in her feeding tub.
Too big???!!!
