Feeding new adults

Hi Rich

I wanted to say that my new Okeetees are doing great. A little painful to handle but that will change I am sure. I have a couple questions.

When should I try and feed them? I have had them here for 1 week.
Will they eat frozen? I will warm it honest :bang:
Would you have any idea how old they might be? approx is fine
Is there a way to tell hypo A from Hypo B when they are young?

Sorry to be a pest.

Thanks
Richard Holyoak
 
I mark the animals on the weekend prior to their being shipped so they aren't fed just prior to shipping. So figure on their last meal being the week before shipping.

Nearly all of the adults will take frozen/thawed mice. But I have had some get goofy around breeding season and only take fuzzies for a spell.

As for ages, beats me. I've sent out a LOT of adults recently, so it would only be the wildest of guesses for me to state an age. Most of the stuff has been animals that hatched in 2000 and 2001, however.

Thanks.
