it wasn't always once a month, just recently its been long periods of time inbetween that's prob why hes grown pretty big. I cant really get a picture of him because im on a laptop but ill try to. I mentioned they can last for 6 months because I was worried about people telling me 1 month wasn't ok. im really just wondering if I should get him a rat or 2 mice in one feeding. im not that young, im 15 I just don't put that much effort into my English sorry
