On choosing between the two grades

Weaner and Large Weaner sit in different weight bands (26–50g against 51–100g), so picking the right one is about matching your reptile's prey size rather than personal preference — check what size your animal is currently taking before ordering either.

Why we chose it

Buying in a pack of 10 makes sense once you know which grade your reptile actually needs. DEFRA licensing and the stated sourcing are worth having for something going straight into an enclosure as food.

Full description

Feeder size for a reptile is not a preference, it's closer to a safety rule — too big a prey item for a snake or lizard to manage is a real risk, not just an inefficiency.

These are frozen weaner rats, sold in two grades: Weaner (26–50g) and Large Weaner (51–100g). They're sourced from a rodent farm in Europe, DEFRA-licensed for distribution to the trade, humanely euthanised, graded and blast frozen, and sold 10 to a pack.

On choosing between the two grades. Weaner and Large Weaner sit in different weight bands (26–50g against 51–100g), so picking the right one is about matching your reptile's prey size rather than personal preference — check what size your animal is currently taking before ordering either.

Who it's for: reptile keepers who need a whole-prey weaner rat in either the 26–50g or 51–100g band, buying 10 to a pack rather than individually.
