    Raising Ball on Mice?

Keep the live in a tub. Keep the f/t in freezer, and hope I don't confuse them for a tv dinner. Do that every month. May have to feed more often. And may end up being costly. But at $1.29 each, it hasn't been too bad so far.

    I have the opposite problem at my local store. They have retired breeder mice then "small" rats that are to big for my snakes. Got a small rat one day and there was no way my 300g snake was going to eat it. Weighed the rat at over 100g. I didn't think to check it til I got home. My bad. I've found rodentpro sells xlarge mice for $.80 ea. Or comparable sized weaned rats for $1.25 ea. Cheaper to feed mice for the time being in my case. The other thing is I would imagine a mature animal would have more calcium and other minerals than an underdeveloped one?
