I have a 36 in burm and i feed him every 7-10 days
he eats 4 mice every week but this week my redtail would not
eat all of her mice so my burm ate 6 should i doo that or is that over feeding .

I dont think your ovedoing it feeding a young bumr that much, but I would'nt feed now for at least ten days.
If your burm is eating 6 mice, I'd be willing to bet he can switch over to small rats quite easily.
I understand that your RTB eats mice and it's easier to feed both mice, but both can also eat small rats.

Thanks I was just checking I thought he would stop when he was full.

I dont think burms ever get full. I can feed mine a large amount of prey, the next day, they are hunting around the cage again!
They are, or lat least mine are bottomless pits.
