I have three mouse eaters - one sub adult one juvie and one hatchling - they won't even look at a rat let alone kill and eat one. All three of them are as healthy as can be - however - they are all smaller than their siblings and other rat eaters thier age. Am I worried - no I think in the long run they will all catch up - these three are all lean muscular healthy animals and thats what counts.

As far as nutritional value goes the following link will give you all the information you need - but remember one thing - if your feeders are getting fed junk food - then they aren't going to be as healthy as the could be - make sure you buy your feeders from a good source!

Anyway - hope this helps!
