Feed schedule for a BP at 174g
Me again! :)
Right I'm putting my three smaller BP's on a 5 day feeding schedule as they're on the scales at 60g, 77g and 87g.
I have my 260g pastel and my 550g male on a 7 day schedule.
Now, my issue, my 174g girly; should she be on a 5 day or a 7 day. I got my pastel at 200g and she was on a 7 day. What would you guys suggest?
Re: Feed schedule for a BP at 174g
Whatever you want that falls between 5-7 days and at least a rat pup. My 2013 pastel is at 150g right now and I am feeding her every 6 days.

Oh yes that's right...you would think that having several classmates from Bulgaria and Sweden that I would remember measurements are different across the pond. lol.

Rat fluffs are rat fuzzies to us. Stay at 5 days like your smaller ones so your not doing 10 different feeding schedules. Also it all depends on what you want to do. If she is eating and pooping like she should then she's good. Your doing everything right.

You could do 5 days until they hit 500g then bump to a 7 day schedule. Lol, "fluffs". I've never heard that. It's cute.

I'll message the guy I got the het gs off and see how often he was feeding her also.
Once they hit the small rat area I make it every seven days, but some will do it differently.
