>>Thanks Greg. When you say a couple of small rodents are you talking about small adult mice or a couple of hopper size mice? My girl has a voracious appetite so I figure she would probably take 2 small adults every feeding.

Depending on the size of the girl. I like not to see a bulge in them after they have eaten. A large 400 gram female will get 2 or so medium sized adult mice and a smaller (200-300) will get small - medium sized weaned mice.

I also like to feed chubby rat crawlers (pups) to females also. I try and mix it up.
