When I got Kaiya a month ago (guessing she is 1.5 years old), she was a little on the slim side and the owner had her eating one adult mouse per week which was very small for her size. I then switched her over to one small rat every 10-14 days and she’s starting to look much better.

One thing I’ve noticed in the last month is that her weight is steadily increasing but her length hasn’t budged at all. Im not expecting a massive length increase in a month but maybe an inch or less. I was just curious how the length and weight relate to one another in a BCI’s growth process?

Now if this trend continues over the next couple months (weight gain with minimal length increase), I’m guessing it would be smart to increase time between feedings even more in hopes of evening things out. Or will the length eventually start to catch up?
