I would say a mouse would be rather large for even a full grown Tokay. Stick with pinkies. I once tried a rat pinkie and the Tokay had truoble with it resulting in it shredding the pinkie rat and only eating what was left in it's mouth. It's not unusual for a tokay to not eat something that is not alive and moving. A pinkie once every other wek will fatten him up just fine, they should only be used as a snack and not a staple diet. good luck
