Hatchling food question.

[Neal]

I would like to start my babies on rat crawlers, however I am facing a dilemma that doesn't make them easy to obtain. Damn work schedule -___-
So if I start on mouse hoppers, can I stock up for two or three feedings or do hoppers still need their mothers milk?

You can start them on rat pinks, fuzzies. Many breeders start on mouse hoppers because of the movement. Hoppers are well off their mothers milk(I think)? I'd assume only the mouse pinks and fuzzies are on the moms milk.
