question for shadow

i feed my water 3 adult mice a day. and i mix in a few chicks a month. but he eats every day. Im thinken he is pushing a year of age soon. past few months he has been growing fast. was 38inches in December and proly a few more than that now. Would you switch to rats that seem to cost more? or just stick with the mice?

And do you have a web site up with pics of all your monsters?

Man mine would eat 3 probly around 4 times a day haha.

For most people I recommend them to feed smaller meals more often. I do both small and large meals. The large meal may last longer but in some setups it may last to long. With experience you learn how to help them digest those large meals. Now seeing your monitor is at or around 4 foot it can easily digest those 3 mice in no time, it could also digest 2 medium rats fairly quickly. So I don't think any of them would be a problem for you. It would just come down to which makes the most sense for you (price, availablity, etc.).

I think this link works for you to see my online photo album.
