No, not even close. Hoppers are typically 8-11 grams. Adult mice are 18-32.

Since you already have the hoppers you could feed two per feeding just to use them up.

That seems like a lot

It's not. And again, not trying to be rude, but this is stuff you should know about your pet before bringing it home.
When we bring animals home they rely on us 100%, not just to survive, but to thrive. So isn't it only fair to know how to properly care for them before bringing them home?

If your vet is telling you to feed fuzzies or hoppers to a BP you need a new vet. Your vet clearly doesn't specialize in reptiles. Many vets will see reptiles, but only know what they learned in school and only know basics. They don't keep reptiles or have any first hand knowledge of keeping them in captivity.

It's important to have a vet that specializes in reptiles.

...and this is also why it's so important to cross reference information. Just because one person says it doesn't mean it's what's best, or even true.

He does deal with them and he has many at home. The thing is we haven't gone in a while. I will feed multiple hoppers tho.

Hmmmm, well then it seems awfully odd to me that he would suggest feeding fuzzies and hoppers to a BP. That's BP101 level stuff.
