Thanks for the quick reply! Okay, separation has been stressed. I can divide the 30 gallon easily so maybe I will do that. I also have a 55 gallon with divider for them later but have not gotten a lid for it yet. The 30 breeder has a locking lid so that's why I was looking to use that one. Feeding every five days will be tough for me since the store and my hours only coinside one day per week - Wednesday. All the other shops only sell F/T. My hubby says no rodents living in the house unless they are in the freezer or in the snake - tehe. I will have to think about that one.
