Thats a good question Poomwah. I have a 4 month old bull and she's eating 2-3 hopper mice every 5-6 days. They're about the same size as rat pinks. I just placed a feeder order and they messed up my order and sent me all rat fuzzys instead of pinks and fuzzys. The fuzzys definitely look too big for her right now but I'm sure she'll be ready for them in a few months. I would probably order a few rat pinks, more fuzzys, and a few rat pups. That should cover your current and future needs. I'm sure Jason can tell you what they're eating now and how fast they typically grow too. Best wishes with the new addition.
