I have a female enchi that is a voracious feeder. Right now she is on small rats that are averaging 60 grams and barely waver from that. As soon as she finds out its feeding time she comes out of her hide and is staring out the front of her tub just waiting. Sometimes she tries coming through the tub to get the rat. If she's not aware of feeding time until the rat is in the tub she will pretty much lunge out of her hid and smash the rat hard. But after feeding she acts like she wants more as soon as she gets the first one down. Then after not seeing any more food she goes to her hide and waits with her head out watching for more food.
She is about 10 months old and just weighed on full with about 3 of those tats in her system since the last feeding is 990 grams so probably 920-950 since she seems to be retaining between 1/2 - 2/3 of what she eats. And is running about 36" now. I plan to breed her to my coral glow, but not until next winter. At the rate she's going she'll be near weight this winter, but far too young.
With her awesome feeding response and hunger, I'm wondering when or even if I should bump up the size of prey I feed her. I dot want to over feed and make her not want her next meal, but it seems wierd she's always wanting more immediately after her
meal.
Thanks
