Should I feed a size bigger? (Video) And my 1st BP update.
She's currently eating 2 hopper mice a week. I wanted folks opinion on if I should move a size up or not. I don't know her current weight.
Aside from that I wanted to post this to show you all how my first BP's been doing. Just had her second successful full shed while in my possession. And is eating like a beast.
I know kinda cliché, a feeding video and all, but hey, though I'd give it a shot.
P.S. I hope this is the right place to post videos. (if not, Admin please move)

May I make a suggestion? I cant tell from the video, but if you havent yet, I would suggest melting the edges of the plastic on that hide
Just so she doesnt have any chance of hurting herself
otherwise she looks great! Hope she grows big and strong lol!

Noted. I was kinda thinking the same thing. I did burn it down, but the edges are a bit pronounced.

Would a rat pup be the same size as an adult mouse?

It's would be a tad smaller or about the same as a medium mouse.

I have maybe 4 more hoppers. After that I'll move her up a size. And then move to rats all together in the future.
