I'm hopfully going to be having my first litter of babies soon and was wondering what size mice should I have in stock, that is if they with eat F/T right away.
Thanks for the help

It depends on a lot of factors, but usually hoppers work well, remember you usually have atleast a week after they are born before you need to worry about food. Good luck. Craig Kade

I'd go with rat pups. They have less hair than mice the same size, and it will be a long time before you ever have to switch your boa off of rats if you ever even need to.
