I have a 1200 gram ball that I have always called male but he is unsexed. I feed him one small rat (55-65 grams) once every 7 days. He was last fed Friday and has been cruising since yesterday morning looking for another. He always cruises after his first small. Should I up him to two smalls a week, or every few days as he seems hungry. I know a lot of people who breed try to keep their males lean at around 1000 grams but I have no intention of breeding EVER and if he looks like he will take one I feel like I should give it. I have read that some people who do this, feeding when they act hungry that is, get a lot less refusals. While he rarely refuses I feel like it makes sense to go ahead and feed him.

I have tried him on mediums before but he seemed more hesitant to take it. I had to do LOTS of zombie dancing and even then he refused (which he almost never does with the smalls) so I don't think moving him up in food size is a good option for us.
