|

hi guys, without buying any rats and taking them home, all i can do is ask on here
here is a pic of the female in question
i know she has been feeding on large mice, so i didnt know if it was an idea to get some weaner rats and give her a go on them, i can buy just one and see how i get on, but i dont want her to take an item too big for her
let me know what you all think |

as Ross said she'll be fine, she won't attempt it if it's too big (normally). It may be worth trying on a mouse sized rat first though just so the size AND new smell doesn't scare her off, then once fed on one increase the size. _________________
