just got my digital scales in and did my first weighin on cc - our 4 1/2 month old candy cane corn - noticed on his last 2 feedings that he didn't hide out as long as he had on his first few since i got him - also noticed that the pink he was eating on 5 and 6 day intervals was barely noticeable after 24 hours from eating - so as i expected he weighed in at 16 grams - according to munson - certainly ready for 2 pinks instead of one - have a question though - i've been too tight thus far to bite the pricey shipping charges online so i've been buying my pinks at petco - quality seems good - nicely packaged 3 to a pack but only weigh 2 grams each - so that gives him even less as munson's weight of a pink is "2-3 grams" - SO ?? - he needs about 6 grams in 2 bodies but from petco i would have to feed him 3 of theirs to get the 6 gram equivalent - don't want to overcomplicate it but would like to hear any ideas, suggestions, comments, etc. - on a non related note - maddi - my big nasti girl dum - dum weighed in at 700 grams - i discovered an interesting fact from the comparison - - if i had cc on the right weighted pinks and if i have maddi about right one one small rat weekly then each of them are ingesting or would be taking in basically weekly about 16-17 % of their body weight - just wondering if that has been discussed before my time and if it will stay true as they grow - whatcha think snake people????
I don't have to buy for a year now, but if you really don't want to store 500 mice you can hit up your local shows for bags of 25 and 50 mice cheaper than petco too.
