i recently ordered a bunch of large rats thinking they would be fine. but they seem almost too big for one of my balls. she got it down in ten minutes once she found the head and its been a few days now and she seems fine. but it seemed like a BIG stretch for her and she seemed uncomfortable until the next day, like she didnt want the stretched skin to touch the ground. is it ok to continue to feed them to her? i was thinking of feeding her every 2 weeks. i ordered them from the mouse factory, so the quality is good and they are all perfectly sized, so at least i dont have to worry about any oddball sized ones.
