BPnet Veteran
Appropriate Feeding Portion
Hey everyone,
Probably tired of all of my posts by now, but I like to be very informed before I make a commitment. I will be getting a rescue bp in just a few weeks, and I want to know what kind of feeders I should get. Since I would only have 1 snake, I ruled out breeding my own mice, and he wont take f/t, but I would prefer live anyway. I will probably end up buying all of my feeders at a reptile expo, probably 1-2 months of feeders at a time.
I dont have an actual measurement yet, but I would say he is a little under 3 feet right now, and with a diameter thats seems a little under 2 inches. If these seem really out of proportion, let me know and I can try to get some better measurements.
Would rats grow too quickly to be a viable option, since I would be housing them for at least a month. If not, then I will probably go the rat route so that I dont have to feed multiples anytime. Thus said, if I feed adult mice, is he big enough to need multiples yet, and if so, how many/what is the rule of thumb?
Thanks
-Austin
