as long as your snake is feeding regularly i wouldn't be really worried. my female ball stopped feeding for a couple of months, which of course got me a little nervous. she prefered mice to rats but the store was out of them an i got a good deal on hamsters. i tried them and she's gained about 120 grams on a little over a month. if you can get them regularly, or don't mind breeding them (just be responsible and don't let them escape, apparently) go for it. i say whatever you can get you ball to eat consistantly is worth everything.



cheers,

pete
