its onlt the feeding you need to be carful of. as said as a hatching its best to use kitchen roll purely so you can see when they hsve poo'd. the issue with feeding is if u feed in the faun/rub/viv there is a chance substrate could stick to the rodent an be eaten, but that easy to over come by either feeding out the viv or covering substrate
