Opinions on this feeding

Even if the rat is 1/4 of there size? I'm asking because I recently obtained a large adult female. So far I have fed her 1 meal and it was slightly bigger than her girth (I thought that was the rule ) and it was a large rat!!!

The big girl in this picture gets nothing larger than a "small small" rat, ever ... and the rest of the girls that big and some even bigger are the same ... ask anyone on here that's been to my shop, I've got big healthy balls.

Do you try to breed larger males with the larger females? or does that not matter?

I selectively breed for the best possible appearance that I can achieve in my offspring ... I spend an incredible amount of time finding the right boy for the right girl ... size of the male and female never play into it for me ... as long as they are ready and healthy, it doesn't matter ... but then again, I don't go trying to breed 300 gram males ... when my animals are put into a breeding program, they are more than capable of handling the animal(s) I pair them with.

The male in that picture is over 850 grams I think? ... Closer to 1000? ... just for perspective.
