and wham, he took that one too. I'm not one for over or power feeding so that wont happen again.
She's a cutie, good luck.
Thanks! She is a pretty little girl

If she's a hearty eater for the time being, take advantage of it!
Yup, she's on f/t. I heard switching can be stressful, but now that I remember better, the conversation was talking about hatchlings who didn't want to start eating not well established yearlings xD So um, jk haha. I have three more gerbils I think (so three weeks), so I will probably just get a few large mice until I feel secure about small rats then start her on rats. As fast as she's growing and chunking up, she shouldn't have to switch up to medium rats for a longggg time.
