    Is this guy thin?

    I am worried that this guy might be a bit thin. He is my Poss Het Pied male. He has been off of food for a couple of months, ever since I started pairing him up with my female. The scale said he is sitting around 1000 grams. Just wanted some input. I always worry that my pets are to thin. Thanks.

    Looks like a healthy, athletic 1000 gram male. I'd much rather they be a touch thin than too fat.

    Why would he be full from that rat? Wouldn't he be full from the rat you fed him the day before yesterday? You said you feed him every other day?

    Help me favela, help me understand...
