    All my little ones are the same way. They are out searching my day 4. Sometimes day 3. Crazy how they can get so hungry

    I'm feeding mine every 5 days. Seems to do well. And like stated above when they get over 500g go to every 7-10 days. Mine is a month older than yours and is about 400g.

    Ugh don't get me started. With the way she eats, other people would think I'm starving the poor thing.

    Lol. Yea I know. My little calico is slim and long the the OP. I feed her every five days. And she just doesn't get chunky enough. I hope she gets some meat on her soon.

    Op, also remember they all grow at different rates. This little sausage eats every 5 days too, and she is growing around faster than length.

    Where as this little piggy is getting round, and long.

    Probably, but they're all males in the 1000 gram range which makes me just keep them at 7.

    I was on a 5 day, but my lesser was in hunt mode three days after feeding so I offered and she went. So I tried my pastel too, she went on it in blue so I'm keeping that this pace until they hit like 500 or so, then I will be reevaluating.
