    At that size I would say try a rat pup and then work your way up.

    I agree, that a small rat would be too big for that size. Start with a pup

    I'm bettin you can find other bp owners near you that know where you can find pups... Only other thing is to find a rat breeder and buy direct... Wish my colony was bigger i'd ship ya some, buy mine are just gettin started..

    If she will take the second mouse, no reason not to give it to her.
