Just wondering....

khalliaar Nov 04, 2003 12:26 PM

I was just wondering if my ball was a healthy size and weight for his age. He is most likely a male. He is about 21-22 inches long and he weighs about 165grams (this is his weight after 6 days of no food). I know that I should give him food about once every five days but the pet store was out of mice, they dont sell live rats, he doesn't take frozen and the hamsters were too fat (lol). Thanks a lot.

I have a male and a female who are just under 24" and they both weighed about 170g last time I checked. I don't know if that's healthy but mine seem to do ok. I'll weigh the male again after he sheds, probably next week.Hopefully that is helpful
