So I was wondering was I under feeding my bp with giving him rats at 34 grams when he's 380grams. Then I was wonder should I offer two which would either equal or a little under the 20% so called rule.
One of those every 5-7 days should be fine. Most people want to pack on the grams quickly to get their animals up to breeding weight. Unfortunately this leads to other health issues such as fatty liver disease. I prefer to keep mine on the light side versus too heavy, but then I'm in no hurry to breed my females either.
