So I bit the bullet and ordered frozen rats online. Spock weighs 219g and I have been feeding him 19g adult mice. I tried giving him 19g mice and 8 g hoppers but he would only take the adults. So I ordered 25 30-40g rat weanlings from Layne labs(cheapest on shipping since I am in California) I just got them and they look fantastic! I'm a bit obsessive so I weighed each one as I was bagging them. Only one weighed 30g, a few weighed 32g, a few weighed 36g, most weighed 38g and a few weighed 40g.
I want to make sure I bagged them right. I bagged each rat in its own snack baggie, then put 2 -3 rats in baggies in freezer quart bags. I then put 3 quart bags into freezer gallon bags. I labeled all the bags accourding to gram size with the date I froze them on it. Does that sound right?
