I noticed tonight while feeding Sal that shes starting to get that blueish sheen, I take it this means shes about to start shedding? Its only very very faint just now and only in a couple of places on her and im glad shes had a feed before it incase she goes off her food for a while after it.
This is my first experience of a shed so im quite excited!

by blueish sheen you don't mean something like the rainbow shine you see on say a white lipped python do you? Only reason I ask is that mine (and to my knowledge all royals too) have the oily sheen to them when in top condition. |

if you can get them she could move up to a rat fluff....
but feed her every five days for now..
Can i ask what weight is a rat pup. I thought a rat fluff was small. Where i get my food from a rat pup is about 100g which is bigger than the weaners i got.
that weight sounds more like a small/medium rat...
rat pups tend to be around 10-15g |

Rat Pups are like mouse pinkies, probably up to 10g or so. |

Yes, stick with every 5 days for now. Rat Pups should be fine for a bit too or as Anne says you can get some small fluffs. |

Ok cool, yeah shes been fed twice since i got her, 5 days apart . Ill take a wander up to Neon Gecko and see if they got any fluffs. If I can get her onto fluffs next feed will they still be 5days apart?
Thanks for the help
