    Hoppers are what bp's eat straight out of the egg only for their first few meals. Frankly your bp should be on small mice, which at 115 grams, your little guy should be able to tackle no prob.

    I actually misnamed the mouse. I meant small mouse and not 'small adult' . So you'd want a small mouse Sorry about that!
