    Just a few piccies

    Just a few pics of my little female feeding. My mojave has one of the best feeding responses I've ever seen. Here she is chowing down on a jumbo mouse.

    The only thing that bothers me is the fact she still show signs of hunger after a large meal. If I feed her anything bigger she'll just tear in half. I've had her checked for illnesses and yet she's in top condition.

    Seems I have a baby with a monster appetite

    My female ripped one open trying to eat it butt end first last week, she couldn't get the tail past her mouth so kept squeezing and pulling on it until it looked like a crime scene

    If she won't eat a bigger meal try feeding two smaller ones

    nice pics though

    She is just a piggy, which is a good thing. They can be in a feeding mode for a bit after they eat. One of those the eyes are bigger than the stomach things. I would stick to the approx 15% rule and every 4-7 days depending on your feeding schedule.

    I have a 180 gram LemonBlast that would eat every single day and twice on Sunday if I let her (my 500g Jigsaw is the same).

    A healthy feeding response is a great thing!
