Re: Cali King Regurgitated Meal

Why are you feeding 6 pinkies?? Why not one or even two larger food items? I'm guessing here but I know my neonate corns could eat that many mouse pinkies if I gave them to them but I feed ours two rat pinks and am upping the size very soon to weaned mice(rodentpro sale). HAH!! the order just arrived lol. Anyways I am guessing your cal king is around the same size as my corns and could probably handle a couple of rat pinks or one larger food item.

"He is on half aspen(the black kind if it matters) and half cocofiber/cypress 9:1 mix."

Do you mean cypress instead of aspen? If not that stuff molds very fast (aspen) and you wont see it because its dyed black. I would recommend only using cocfiber and or cypress if you are going to have high humidity.
