I think you'll find that the mainstream thought about how much to feed an adult corn is that one adult per week is enough for nearly any adult. However, in my opinion, that is too much for most adults as well.
In reality, unless you are trying to put weight on a female for breeding season, one adult mouse every other week is plenty for the vast majority of adult corns. I believe also,if you ask most of the larger breeders, you'll find that this is more in line with how they feed as well.
Too often, we get set into a specific way of corn husbandry that has worked for us, and we assume that it must THE way for everyone else. The one thing I have found in corn husbandry that is a "set in stone" rule is...there are no "set in stone" rules. ----- Darin Chappell
