Where do you get your info? I feed my babies 1 rat every four to five days and I do not seam to have any problems. I don't think all bps are same. Some will eat twice a week others will eat every two days but I tend to feed them more often when they are young. I have some 09's that are 1800 grams and some 2010's that are from 500 to 800 but again it all depends on the animal. Don't be scared to over feed as it is much more likely you will under feed.
