    why does she still seem hungry??

    Our female pinstripe is about 600g and I fed her probably a 65g rat last night. Just after eating the rat she seemed to come out like she was still hungry, should I feed her more often? right now she is eating about every 6-7 days. should i feed her something bigger? if so how big?

    Re: why does she still seem hungry??

    You can offer a 2nd rat during feeding. If she doesn't take it, then she's done. Eventually she may take a second or you can try upping the size. Don't go bigger than her girth in prey size. I have a 650gram which just started on small rats last week. He was done after the first one but a couple days later looked like he could've taken another, I may up him to 2 w/in a month depending how he grows and hungry he seems.
