Weighing BP?

[rebeccabecca]

I just got my scale and weighed my BP. He's 203g,oct/nov hatch( 5/6 months). currently he's having feeding issues . What size should be and how often should I weigh him?

[Kaorte]

BP's all grow at different rates.

If your BP isn't eating, weigh him every week and make sure he is not loosing weight. If he is loosing weight, see the vet.

Can you give us some details of your setup? We might be able to help with the feeding problems. (pictures of the setup would be great )

Though they do all grow at their own rate, 203 grams for a late hatch 08' really isn't too bad. Work with him on the feeding troubles and weight him regularly to monitor any gain or loss.

My set up is a starlite clear box, 2 hides, paper towels, UTH, water dish. I'll down load pics. I just don't get him!! maybe I'm comparing him to my always hungry corns.

How often are you offering him food?

[rebeccabecca]

I offer it food the same day as I feed my corns every 5 days although when he has aten I waited a week.

Have you changed anything in his evironment lately? Any temp or substrate changes or give him any new hides?

[rebeccabecca]

This is the basic set up but I changed the water dish to a short cup and added another hide just the same as in the picture.
