Well you have to remember that it's your choice to feed him or not. I have a couple females that could eat all day long. If he is really big i don't see anything wrong with a mouse every other day. You should look out for obesity though.



For my bigger mice feeding females i will feed them once a week but 3-4 mice on that day. It's about the equivilant to 1 good size small rat. They are not fat and growing at a good steady pace.
