    I know you keep and breed red-striped ribbons, and I would NEVER recommend feeding that species a rodent-only diet!
    right now my holdback trio are getting a pinky or silverside strips every other feeding! The funny part is the first time I offered pinkies I did it without any scenting and they went CRAZY for them!!!
