    Another feeding question...

    I have another feeding question. My ball is 6 months old. I have been feeding hoppers every week (7 days) since I got him the beginning of August. I realised that is probably isn't enough anymore so have put in 2 the last couple of feedings. He isn't eating the second hopper. Should I just go to adult mice? Why wouldn't he eat the second hopper?

    Not all of them will take two prey items in one feeding.

    Hoppers are what hatchlings are generally started on and they usually move very quickly to adult mice, so you need to feed adult mice.
