    I just got a mid early 09 female thats only 230 grams..

    She eats well but charlie never fed her, is it possible for her to ever get to breeding size? Or is she stunted for life?

    With regular feeding, she will catch up and grow normally.

    Agreed! She will probaly eat like crazy for you! Feed her a rat pup every 5 days then switch to small rats at about 400 grams! She will grow quick with this feeding schedule!

    My bp was around 200 grams when I got him at almost 2 yrs old! 9 months later he is around 700 grams. MY only mistake was feeding him mice the first few months. Then I switched to rats and he gained weight like crazy. Definatly feed her rats. That will make her gain weight fast!!!
