What weight would you say a large mouse should be roughly? And what about jumbo?

Just been to get some large mice but they had only got jumbos, but they didn't look much larger than large mice, if any.

Will weigh them when defrosted.

Wow 50g!

I weighed the jumbos I got today and both were 29g.

Cheers

it varies a lot between suppliers, but generally the jumbo (or large, or xl again depending on supplier) will be ex breeders that have been retired

Large mice are 20-25g normal, Jumbos they can be listed as 30+ or 35+ :3

as u can see from the mice section of link subz put up the weight range cover by the larger sizes is quiet wide, but bear in mind unless the all a uniform size the appearance will be diseving too, i dont tend to ask for a size as ask to see them and pic the ones i want, btu oviously you can only do that at a shop and not on net

I was seriously confused until i had a long conversation with staff at http://www.reptilecentre.com - this was after various attempts to get a consistant view of what size mice should be and actually are. Prior to adopting my two adult corns I was told they were on adult mice, They are actually on extra large mice now.
