my animals are pigs

So I have three bps and a pacman frog and today was feeding day. For some reason all my reptiles are acting like pigs and waiting for me at the glass to get more food after I fed them Lol. Everyone I pass by the cage they fallow me with their head.

Just be happy that they all ate :P

May be time to size up their prey? :P

I have a MBK that will come zipping out of her hide if you undo the clips on the top of her tank. She begs worse than my dogs do.

Lol. My big one should be on a size bigger then adult mice but can't find a place around here that carrys a size that big frozen and I won't kill an animal. So I give him two adult mice. My other two are at the size they need to be on but still want more. I gave my small bp two big hoppers instead of one this feeding to see if he would be content with it but the guy still wanted more. Their all under two and a half feet besides my oldest one

Where are you located at? What I honestly recommend doing is trying to find people in your area either on the forum or that sell F/T. I'm going to people that have snakes and are close to me and see if they want to split orders from now on. I figure if you find one or two people then it'll kill the cost of shipping.

I have a corn snake that does this! She's terrible.

Been shopping online but he's to small for a medium rat but to big for a adult mouse. What would u guys recommend. I'll post pick so u can see him

Pick up a digital kitchen scale. If he weighs <700 grams, feed him a prey item 10-15% of his body weight, if he weighs >700 grams, feed him a rat between 50 and 80 grams once a week. Every place you go to sizes their feeders differently so it's hard to go 'oh yeah you need to feed him _______'

That's the only thing I don't have. A scale. Lol

Any good places online or store to get one for a good price at?

Walmart or target has decent kitchen scales for $10-$15. I think I got mine from walmart and have seen the same scale floating around in peoples' weigh in pics. It goes up to 11 lbs, does grams, kgs, lbs, ounces.

My only worry is that how good and accurate it is, that's the only thing that stopped me from getting one from there. I ordered the myweigh one.

You can get a 'reptile scale' at reptilebasics.com. A lot of reptile websites sell scales because it's pretty vital for most herp keeping. My scale is from Target, but it doesn't matter where you buy it at. I spent a little under $30 for mine about a year ago and it's still going strong and is pretty accurate, so far as I can tell.
