I have rescued and kept several adult ball pythons over the last 30 years, I breed and feed my own live mice.
For the first time I actually bought a new baby to keep. A Fire Spinner (Fire Pinstripe Spider) named "Eight".
9/3/2014 Hatched
1/3/2015 Purchased 110g
3/3/2015 201g
5/2/2015 311g
Can someone tell me if this is a normal growth rate for a juvenile?
I'm currently feeding a mouse every 4 days, at what point can I move to weekly?
Is there some rule of thumb for juveniles weekly feeding size, so I know when to increase the numbers of mice? I know 60g/week for an adult is normal, but obviously juveniles need a higher rate.
ie, should my 300g snake be eating 20g/week, 30g, 40g?
