Well I fed my new baby ball yesterday and he ate like a champ. I fed him a fuzzy mouse. I plan on feeding him again on sunday he is a bit skinny so i would like to put him on a feeding program that would let him eat twice a week. And he shed yesterday too no doubt his first shed i noticed that he was starting at his nose so i put a squeezed sponge in his sterilite house and he gave me a perfect little shed. I feel that this guy is going to go grow up big and strong.
Thanks,
Damien

Hey gozetec02. Thats awsome prefect sheds are a great way to kick things off LOL. For your feeding plan if you wanted try feeding every 5 days or so as it will give him time to poop and then feed again. Or also a probably better way would be just to feed him after everytime hes pooped provided you have waited at least 4-5 days before feedings just my suggestion. Its great that hes not a fussy eater. OH and try to move him onto rats ASAP the sooner the better and easier to.

He is only as big around as my thumb he is only 3 weeks old. Sunday is 5 days from yesterday and i will only do this a few times just at the beginning because i suspect he might go off feed. But i will feed him this sunday again and then i will feed him again the next sunday.
Thanks,

Wow, what a tiny little thing! Cute 
I might be tempted to just offer two small mice at one feeding, instead of feeding twice a week. You could either wait til she gets one down and offer her the next one seperately, or put it into her mouth as the first one's going down. I don't think it's good for their digestive tract to offer meals spaced only a few days apart.
