At what point to space out feedings for a Dumeril's?
I don't have an exact hatch date on Memphis, other than I'm pretty sure she was a late 2017 hatchling. She's currently about 350ish grams and is doing well with a smaller weaned rat every 7-10 days or two smaller rat pups, depending on what we have on hand.
I think her body condition looks really good. She's solid but seems proportional. At what point should we space out her feedings? I don't want to underfeed her, but I definitely don't want to overfeed her. The only reference point I've been able to find online so far is based on length vs. weight (ie, feed every 2 weeks when she hits 3 feet or can take a small rat). She was 155 grams in mid-May when we got her.
Here are a couple of recent photos of her. I can try to get a better one in a day or two, she just ate last night.
Thanks!
