7 inches??? Could you take a picture next to a ruler? That seems... like, half as long as he should be ...

[didiobg88]

nvm i used a messed up ruler hes is about 13 ins long. should i be feeding hime fuzzies?

I would start with hopper mice and then move to adult mice a few feedings later.

Hatchlings start on mice hoppers (10-15% his weight up to 150g or as thick as his thickest part). Feed him whenever you want feeding day to be. A week makes little difference, even at that age.
