Feeding Mice VS Rats

[Expensive hobby]

There is a bit of nutritional difference but not a massive one the problem will come when he is bigger, for example I have a 1600 gm male that would need 160 gm a meal assuming I can get 50 gm (large mice) That is 5 or 6 a feeding, it just gets complicated at that point. A feeding snake is always a good thing there are mouse feeders out there but they are not as common. I'd try to switch but take it really slow scent first and than start pinkies and go from there.

Just to address the elephant in the room. A BP that is 1500g should be taking prey items much larger than 150g. That is following the 10% rule, which is only applicable to hatchlings. I have balls that are only 200g taking small rats. Most people seem to underfeed their BP's.
