it certainly seemed the right thing to do???
I tend to feed my hatchlings more frequently than 10-14 days. I keep them on hoppers for a few months then switch them to very small rats (slightly larger than the crawlers). I move up to small medium rats once they reach sub adult size. I've been trying to keep my adult balls on small medium rats for a while now and they seem to do very well on the smaller prey. Great feeding response most of the time.
