    I didnt get a BP, I have a hungry hungry hippo.

    I got Tali on July 7th and I'd guess she was under a 100grams- probably in the 90gram range. I weighed her on the 9th- 3 months and 2 days after I brought her home- and she is now 400 grams! my chunky monkey is growing!

    When I originally got her I was told she was a hatchling so I had her on a five day feeding schedule which she was very happy to be on (she likes food. Alot). Since then I was told um, no, shes more likely in the 16 month range so shes been switched to seven days. I got free gerbils so shes eating gerbils for a couple more weeks, but I'm unsure what I should be feeding next. Rat pinks and crawlers are too small (no lump) and while shes eaten a small rat (after thoroughly investigating and staring at it) thats a little too big for her right now. I suppose I could go back to mice, I just hate switching it out so often on her haha even though she takes everything like a champ. And I dont want to buy a ton of crawlers or mice because shes been shooting up like a weed. She went from 18inches and 98grams to 26inches and 400grams and 4inches around in three months. I think she'll be ready for small rats soon I just dont know how soon.

    and have a tali picture.
