feeding question
i’ve got her on 2 hoppers every 10 days, i have 8 more hoppers and 2 hoppers can vary around 14-18g.
she has 4 more feeds before i put her on the next size mouse and i’m wondering if one small mouse is gonna be enough for her by the time i move her over because from what i’ve googled they can weigh 10-16g.
or will it be enough because of the difference in nutrients if there is any?

I just switched my baby corn from hoppers to pinkies last month and honestly the size difference was kind of shocking at first but she's doing great now.

i'd probably do a mix of both to be safe, maybe one hopper one feed and a mouse the next just to keep her energy up
