Mouse eating female almost tripled her weight in the last 7 months!

Old and crappy pic I know, but no new camera yet. But when I got this girl April 14 of this year she weighed in at 885g. Two days ago I weighed her and she weighed in at 2447g. During these 7 months I have only fed her 2 rats, other than that she has eaten all mice. Just thought some of you might be interested to know the growth potential there is even when just feeding mice. I do admit that it does take some time to feed her since I am usually feeding her 4-8 large mice at a time, but she is such a great feeder that it hasn't been too bad.

Thanks! I can't wait to get babies from her! I seriously lose sleep at night thinking about it!
