Ah ok lol young locusts are also called hoppers so I got a bit confused lol. Some sellers use different names for different rodent stages.

Glad the royal is feeding and I wish you all the best with it!

Well done you, im really pleased. Hoppers are mice who"s eyes have just opened and are starting to explore. You cant pick them up, cos they literally HOP out your hands. These guys are kamakaze!!!
