Guess it depends on what size fuzzy you were feeding. Did you weigh them? This may be helpful

Mouse size/feeding guide:

1 Pinkie: 1 to 5 days old (0.5 - 3g) - feed every 5 to 6 days (Snake = 4-15g)

2 Pinkies (3-4g) - feed every 5 to 6 days (Snake = 16-23g)

Small Fuzzy: 6 to 13 days old (3 - 6g) - feed every 6 to 7 days (Snake = 24-30g)

Fuzzy (7-9g) - feed every 6 to 7 days (Snake = 30-50g)

Fluff/Hoppers: 2 to 3 weeks old (7-12g) - feed every 6 to 7 days (Snake = 51-90g)

Small Adult/Weaned: 3 to 4 weeks old (13-18g) - feed every 7 days (Snake = 91-170g)

Large: 4 to 6 weeks ((19 to 25g) - feed every 7 to x days (snake = 170g+)

X large: 6 months + old (350 +) - feed every 10 to x days (Snake = 170+)


Now you just have to work out whether you were feeding a small fuzzy and move onto a fuzzy, or if it was a fuzzy and move onto a hopper/fluff!!

Not quite sure how this helps if you havent weighed the mice!
