ive been thinking that for a long time, its crazy but the pet store advice me to stick to pinkies for a couple more months, hes an 07 hatchling around a year old now me thinks. i feed him two pinkies per serving twice a week to build him up a bit for larger food. do you think its now time to move up. he does eat pinkies with relative ease nowadays, but dont want to risk hurting him with bigger meals |

I'd say it's probably time to move up, he's a little bigger than peanuts and peanuts has just taken two fuzzies with reliatively ease. hope that helps :)
Edit= Sorry forgot to say i would build it up gradually maybe try one fuzzie instead of the two pinkies and work up from there. :) |

Great video! I think you should definatly move up to fuzzy mice, that pinky is no way near enough for that size snake |

Also pinkies have a very large fat content (as with human babies), my '07 is on small mice now. I would suggest moving up to a fuzzy next feed. |

my biggest 07 (Peachy, the Ghost) is on small mice, CherryPetal is another 07 and she takes 2-3 fuzzies and little Stripey (another 07) had just recently moved up to 1 fuzzie a week before I bought her. She's now taking 2 fuzzies easily. All my 07s are fed every 5 or 6 days. |
