Trying to figure out a feeding schedule...

[200xth]

Hi Gang,

I've had 3 successful feedings with my baby ball now. Last time he ate was last wed. I decided to stop at the pet shop and pick up a mouse on the way home, just to see if he was hungry. It's only been 5 days but I figure I would try. The baby mice they had seemed a little big but I thought I would try it.

The instant I put the mouse in the tank BOOM! He ate the thing instantly and fit it down his throat rather easily!

This is the FIRST time he has eaten the moment I put the mouse in....does this mean he is hungry? Should I offer another mouse tomorrow? I'm assuming this is a great sign that he is now comfy in his new home...

Anyways, just wanted everyone's thoughts on this.

When you say, "baby mice" what exactly do you mean?

A BP hatchling right out of the egg can take a mouse hopper. They move to adults within a few weeks.
