I think it was Marcel Poots who posted that.

If you can feed a whole prey item that would be best. I do remember there being a discussion here or on another forum saying that tails will give some sustenance, not much, but obviously better than nothing.

I'd try to force feed a mouse pinky. If that works, obviously stick with it. If not, just keep using rat tails until they are bigger to handle the force fed whole prey.
