Change Food?
hey everyone
so gertrude is now weighing at 190g(weighed about 2weeks ago and is in shed now so cant update till done), and is eating an adult mouse on sun and one on wed. is that enough or should i change to small rats one a week or any other suggestions

Adult mice to small rats is a big jump IMO. Most of the small rats I get from RP are roughly 50+ grams, and I wouldn't feed one to a 190 gram baby personally. Rat pups/weaners every 5-7 days should do you fine.

Re: Change Food?
If you want to try switching to rats, a fuzzy rat would be about the right size. I would suggest feeding only once a week, regardless of the size or prey...
