Posted - 19/10/2009 : 16:43:03 Hi all hope you & yours are all well? I have sourced some small rat weaners that range from 30-40g, I have previously been feeding rat fluffs every 5 days, I am I best to still feed every 5 days, or move it to every week? Slash weighed 297g last week although he wasn't empty. Thanks for any help recieved. Glyn |

not that BE is wrong though, it's just a (rare) difference of opinion |
