    I'd be careful about that becasue you don't want her to get hooked on mice and refuse rats. Instead I would of tried a fuzzie or a rat pup instead of a weaned(assuming we mean the same size). Then at least that way she's still eating.

    Oh i will be getting afuzzy next time for her i just wanted her to eat something and read to try a mouse if she refused a rat i do not want her to get hooked on mice either but i know they can go a while without eating. I was just a bit worried as she is my first ball and i dont want anything to go wrong i just lost a baby corn and i dont want to lose her too. Probably being a bit over cautious at the moment but i love my babies.

    When I was out there that way I didn't see many pet stores, so how does all the finding rodents there work and snake breeders and what not?

    We have a few reptile specific stores. Not may of our petstores actually sell reptiles. And a lot of breeders advertise in Freeads or on the internet. I bought both my corn and my ball from small reptile shops as the breed and raise their own stock, although cinder was brought in by a customer. That may be where she contracted the mites, which are clearing up nicely now.
