    Baby ball roaming for more food?

    Our cinnamon ball has taken to roaming a bit during daylight hours recently. Her temps are all stable (92 hot spot, 81 ambient/cool side with a hide on either end and fresh water in the middle) and humidity is at 56-60, which had done well for her for a few months now. But she always devours her meal! She even did while blue. She's been getting a small adult mouse every five days. Think it's time to move to rat pups or large adult mice? The small adult mice don't leave a bulge in her at all. Thanks. Here is a pic of her as of about a week ago:

    She looks like she may be able to deal with a small rat to me.

    Time for weaned or small rats. She's roaming 'cause she's hungry...

    You will also get better growth feeding rats. I also agree your May take small rats. You may have to do a little work to get him to eat rats.
