how often

[rex322]

ok i know about the feeding rules (5-7days htachlings, 7-10 adults) but when do you go to the 7-10 day feeding schedule? i feed rex every 6 days right now

How old is he?

[rex322]

idk the age

[Smynx]

What size is he: length? weight?

[rex322]

not sure on the weight, but imsure its a healthy weight. hes 2ft long

If he is at a nice weight, then just keep doing what you're doing. If he is starting to look a little chubby, tapper off a bit

I can't feed my BP enough. She's 5 months old and probably 20-25" already, and somewhat skinny I must say. She eats large adult mice every 5 days, and still I can't keep up. Any suggestions? Should I switch to rats? The only thing keeping me from doing it is her lack of girth...her length appears to be fine.

[rex322]

rats are known for having more protien then mice. is the mouse big enough? i would try to switch to rats as soon as possible.

She's a biggun huh You could probably try bigger prey a little less often (then maybe she wont grow so fast, and put on a little weight) or maybe 2 mice at once every 7 days...
Thats good question. How much does she weigh?

[elevatethis]

I'm not exactly sure how much she weighs. I'll take some pics tonight, she's due to eat, and maybe you all can make a better assessment based on that. They should be up later on. Thanks everyone
