Feeders
Rodent Feeders provide essential nutrition for reptiles, including snakes and large lizards. These feeders consist of mice and rats, available in both frozen and live forms to suit different reptile species and feeding preferences. They are an excellent source of protein and nutrients, ensuring healthy growth and energy for your pets.
Rodents come in a variety of sizes to match the dietary needs of reptiles at every stage of development. Frozen feeders offer convenience and longer shelf life, while live feeders mimic natural hunting behaviors.
Benefits:
- High Nutrition: Rich in protein and essential fats.
- Convenient Storage: Frozen feeders are easy to store and serve.
- Variety: Available in various sizes for different reptile species.

1. Hatchlings and Small Snakes (Corn Snakes, Ball Pythons)
- Food: Pinky mice (newborn mice, no fur)
- Size: 1-3 grams
- Frequency: Every 5-7 days
2. Juvenile Snakes
- Food: Fuzzy mice or small rats
- Size: 3-15 grams
- Frequency: Every 7-10 days
3. Adult Snakes (Larger Ball Pythons, Boas)
- Food: Adult mice, medium rats
- Size: 20-100 grams

Rule of Thumb:
