:. . . aren't rat pups mostly fat? I think you would miss out on a lot of nutrients which are in the bones and tissues of adult mice.
I have some info but I don't have a source....I think it was posted here...maybe the feeder forum
But basically if you compare an adult mouse and a rat pup...
Adult mouse...more than 10gms
protein 55.8%
fat 23.6%
calcium 2.64%
Rat pup juvie 10-50grms
protein 56.1%
fat 32.6%
calcium 3.45%
so yes, fattier. but more of everything too I think. I see the same thing as was mentioned. Switching to rat pups kicked on growth spurts.
