Haha, eating it backwards too? Apollo only got two feeds of double fluffs because I got hold of some hoppers which are just a little smaller than smalls. Sometimes if you get a 'small' small, they can go up to the next size a little sooner |

I used to compare the snakes fattest point to my fingers, find out which one of my fingers is closest and then compare the mice to that finger when buying. Gets fun when you buy for a Royal and you compare it to your wrist. |

If she's had no problems with two at a time for 2-3 feeds then I'd move her up now. You could always ask the shop to pick out the smallest smalls. I'm sure she'll be fine. 9 times out of 10 we worry far more than we need to! |

I left 8 on double fluffs for quite a while but in hindsight think that was more me being paranoid than anything else! |

It depends where you get them from....different people call each move up different names, some also use the terms for mouse and rat which makes it even more confusing. If you ask your shop/supplier they'll point you in the right direction. |
