 * * Prey Size...

The first post I made for this got archived, and is chopped... and won’t "bump"
So making a new one :o)

The chart pic is a little fuzzy, so I will try to make a new one and post it when I have time...


This has a column that tells the equivalent size from Mice to Rats...


These show the diferent sizes of Mice and Rats...
This is the Link to the Blue Chart above

Kojak: Here’s a Link to The Mouse Factory,
which I feel pretty much has their sizes and stages correct....
their pics show the different sizes and average weights as well.
Just scroll over the picture of any given size mouse/rat, and it
will tell you what it is. If you click on that particular rodent,
it will show it next to a ruler to give you a size reference.
And it shows how they are packaged of course.
Again, not a sales pitch or advertisement on my part,
it’s just the best picture demonstration I know right off hand.
Hope that helps.



Here also are links to RodentPro Mice and Rats

Unless the prey is covered in ice (which would indicate it is a Bad prey item),
the weight should be the same... maybe a thousanth of a gram,
from drips of blood from the prey’s mouth, as it thaws.
