Weight Curious

She is a complete sweetheart and I am not complaining. I have a slightly more agressive retic so I dont need any more "fun" giants.

She was weighed right before we fed her and she eats every other week.

She eats every other week? Why not weekly(curious)? I feed mine weekly.

Shes an odd girl. If I feed her every week she will eat for a couple weeks and then go on strike. When I feed her every other week she eats consistantly. She has good body weight and is definately growing so if she wants to eat every other week, Im fine with that.

[Neal]

Mine will eat whatever I put in the tank, doesn't matter what. Well unless it's my hand then she doesn't try to eat it.

[aalomon]

Ya, mines like that with two week feedings. Like I said, if thats what she wants im not going to argure

[Neal]

Oh definately not. As long as she's eating.

Just weighed my yellow again. She's almost 8 months old, pushing 2 1/2 foot and she weighed in at 324 grams. That's with me feeding her once a week, and also after shes pooped twice.

I should get an updated length/weight/pic of my yellow for you.

She's 3 years old now, feeding about once every 3 weeks. Last meal was a chicken 2 weeks ago. She's in the 9 foot range, not getting longer lately but putting on the weight.

Very very tame like you guys have. Lives in an 8x4x2 with a large rubbermaid soaking tub. She likes to digest in there and soak maybe 1/2 of the rest of the time.

Yea, when I first got her she wouldn't eat the hopper, so I had to feed her fuzzys, which I think because of that she got a slow start, which after about 8-9 feedings she finally started taking hoppers, then adult mice. Now i've advanced the feeding a bit with every 6 days and I may step up to every 5 days for a few months.
