Hi guys, was just wondering if in general. reptile shops sell different size pinkys? Or are pinkys usually roughly the same size? |

Most just sell pinkies, but there is the odd shop that will sell small and large. Same with fuzzies. And I bought some supposed hoppers a few weeks ago that were no different whatsoever to the fuzzies I already had!! |

I bought 4 pinkys from pets st home the other day and they were tiny, my stepmum bought some from elsewhere and they were slightly larger than mine ... it happens with all sizes though, fluffy is on large mice, 1 week they will be really big and the week after they will look smaller, now I ask to choose them myself to ensure I get the right size :) |

Thanks, I only ask as I'm feeding hetty( named by my wife I add!) 1 pinky every 6 days and it's about the same width as her widest part, and not really leaving a bump. What's the next size to try? Fuzzies? Or two pinkys?etc. |

If its not really leaving a bump and you have some pinkies in then you could feed her 2 rather than one and once you've ran out then move her onto fuzzies. |

I'd leave 7 days between the feeds once on double pinks. |
