Pardon my ignorance if my questions have been asked thousands of times beforeI do use the search button on this forum and find a lot of what I'm looking for usually! I'm happy to say my temps seem perfect and I'm working on the humidity (at 50% right now....) so I think things are going pretty well.
So my baby (85ish gram) bumblebee male just ate his first meal at my house after being here for 3 days. It was a f/t adult mouse (YAY!!). He gobbled it right up, and doesn't really have a noticeable bulge in him or anything. He does look fatter, but nothing major. So question 1) Should I move up a size, and if so to what? and 2) Can I feed him another mouse if that wasn't enough?
I guess what I'm getting at is, how many meals is TOO many per week? Can I offer him a mouse like twice a week? Two in one day? I don't know if there's a rule of not to feed more than 1 prey item a day, or too close to another meal...hope that makes sense.
Also, I noticed he drinks a lot, for a long time. He won't actually go INTO the water bowl, but his head is down in there drinking for a long time. I honestly don't know how often they drink, my dragons rarely drink and don't even have water bowls in their cages...so that's new to me LOL. Normal for him to drink so much?
Thanks so much everyone, I'm so glad I've found a nice community here.![]()
