Well I finally got some rat fluff from 888reptiles and on first inspection I thought there was no way he would be able to eat them as they looked huge compared to his small mice (even though he was having two). Still I tried feeding him one and he took it whitout any hesitation. He now looks like he has had a good meal with a noticable lump in his belly. Hopefully this will be him going to put on some weight now and we might notice some growth.

Nice one!
I looked for some rat fluffs yesterday for Ripley because mouse fluffs are just ridiculously small for him. But the smallest rats they had were weaners, which looked gigantic! So I had to make do with some small mice until I can track down some rat fluffs. Glad to hear that yours took it with no problems .

If you cant get them then you can get them online like I did coz I had been waiting on my local shop to get them in but they had supply problem. I think I will notice much more size and weight gain with them.
