Hey there
Since my larger female refuses rats and I dont think she is getting enough from the mice I feed her. Ive seen the posts on mice and rats and the growth rates but Im curious if anyone knows where gerbils stand in this. Would I be better off trying to get her to feed of rats. Is it even good for them to be power fed so they get larger faster? I know my doc wouldnt go for it
(not that I'd wanna ).
I was also wondering of the three foods mice, rats, and gerbils, which would be the fattiest or the meatiest. Im breeding all 3 at the moment which is why I ask.
Also Im curious if gerbils are thier natural food why dont more people feed these to thier ball pythons instead of rats and mice? Is there something I should know about the gerbils that I havent come across while trying to figure out the basic care of them that would make others not use them as a food source?
Am I just full of questions or what? Sorry but I realy have tried to find these answers other places but most sites are set up where gerbils are pets not a food source
Thanks for the replies in advance and Happy Easter !
