feeding time for bilbo and lizzie tonight and bilbo did this for me it was so cool to see and watch..








do you think i should be thinking about moving bilbo up to the next size mouse just by looking at the pics. he dont take long to eat that size fuzz or should i feed him 2 at a time. and what is the next size mouse called???

one of lizzie on her first fuzz...


and not to leave him out young roger chilling on top of he's hide.

Brilliant pics- I think Bilbo looks ok on that size (but I could be wrong). what does he weigh, how big is the bump after eating and how long does it take him to eat it?

i weigh him on the 14th of every mouth so i can tell you in 3 days and the bump is not that big and i would say it takes him about 3 or 4 mins to eat it. it took lizzie about 10 mins to eat her one. but it was her first fuzz.

how long has bilbo been on that size fuzzy for? he looks fine to me but you could alternate between two one feed and then one the next to see if he is ready for a bigger meal,but make sure for the first few double feeds it may be an idea to have the second one slightly smaller than the first

nice pics
roger looks so cute on top of his hide!

what if i was to give him 1 fuzz and one pinkie do yu think that would be better for a bit??? i will weigh him on the 14th and see what he is at. he just looks so much bigger then lizzie and roger and there is only two mouths between them.

Cant help you with the feeding questions Bilbo but they are fantastic pics and Bilbo, in particular, is looking great. So glad he constricted, must have been amazing to watch.

bilbo is 48gs and will stick with regular to large size fuzzies.

lizzie is 25gs will keep her on smaller sized fuzzies.

roger is 19gs will keep him on 2 pinkies for the next 4 feeds..
