So I went out and bought 10 fluffs today, small and very nice condition. I'll be feeding Dimika one for the next... maybe 5/6 feeds? Then I might add a small pinky with it, but perhaps not. I was going to wait until she was 35g-40g before I fed with a pinky, so I'll wait for that mark. After she's used to that and grown on a bit, I'll be feeding her two fluffs Sound good?

Sounds good to me.

Reggie used to have a 3g + 2g pinky, last week i tried him with a 4g fuzzy with a 2g pinky, he took his time but took it ok and it left an a fair sized lump. Should i keep adding the small pinky untill he can take 2 fuzzies or should i give him one fuzzy and then move him up to 2 when he is ready?

Sorry if there is mistakes galore in that, im a gew wiskeys down.

When I move her up to a fuzz and a pinky, I'll keep doing that until I move her up to two fuzzies ^-^

I wouldn't bother with the pinkie aswell, there is far more nutrition in a fluff. She will grow quicker and be on 2 fluffs before long. I used rat pups after pinkies and my girls grew very quickly.

Agree with Mike. Once they're on fuzzies I'd go from 1 fuzzy to 2 fuzzies.

In fact; note for the future, I wouldn't feed 2 varied sizes of any size mouse to a snake. If they can manage the girth said size, keep to it. Once they're looking for more after eating one for a while then feed 2 of the same sized mouse, then move up a size. Repeat until on jumbo/large mice.
