    Re: growth rate

    Should i feed him 2 mice the same day, or 2 through out the week? I usually feed him on Monday. So should i try giving him 2 on Monday, or 1 on Monday and 1 on Friday?

    I feed my guy 3 adult mice a week. I feed F/T so I put the first 2 in his cage and if he eats those before I go to sleep I'll throw a 3rd in there over night. He's 7-8mos old and 350g at the moment.

    If you are feeding him good they should gain 100g a month or more.
