nice little MD. judging from the pics, 1 adult mouse is not enough imo. i would be feeding either 2 or possibly a small rat. after working in a pet shop for about 5 years, i can honestly say, most people do give their animals feed items that i would regard as undersize.... the reason we see 2 year olds the size of a 6 month old animal.

I have a six month old Murray Darling eating weaner rats, ready to upsize soon.

Try him on a fuzzy rat next feed so how he goes.
