I just weighed little Mia a week ago and she was 85 grams. I thought it was my imagination that she looked bigger so I weighed her. She is 116 grams now . . .

That's 31 grams in a week. At this rate I will need a new house in a year. LOL.

Last week . . .

Just for reference, what size rat/mouse is she eating?

I don't know what Magenta is. Me nor the breeder ever saw her parents (he got her and her siblings from another state). I think she's just a lighter Columbian.

Magenta ate yesterday so I'll post a comparison pic tomorrow.
