Lesser has been on mice most of his life and has grow great. Im not saying mice are not the same or bad in any way but I JUST got rid of my mouse colony about a month agoOriginally Posted by SatanicIntention
I'll tell some of my 2000g+ girls that mice just aren't doing it for them
Just feed her what she wants to eat, who cares as long as she's eating and gaining weight.
Gram for gram, mice and rats are the same thing and will(in my limited 4 years of experience) provide the same opportunity for growth. It also depends on the snake and how fast he/she is predetermined to grow. 2-25g mice are the same as a 50g rat. My adult girls (1500g+) get 3-4 mice every 7-10 days. Girls under that get 2-3, adult males get 2(maybe a third if they are breeding and need the extra oomph). Babies get 1-2 depending on their size.
So believe me, she'll do JUST fine on mice if that's what she wants to eatThought I was away from them for a while! weekly petstore visits it is to pick up 2 or three mice.
