now that Corny is on medium mice i've noticed that, while the bulge he gets afterwards looks huge, he has no problems moving about and still shows signs of hunger after 4-5 days. i think i'm finally realizing just how skinny this guy is and how underfed he's been; the bulge he gets looks huge compared to the rest of his body, but it's his BODY that's small, not the bulge that's big.
i think this guy is like, maybe upwards of 100g too small from where he should be. i'm really happy that he's eating, shedding and growing but i feel like i'm still not doing enough or doing right by him. the medium mice already make him look like he's swallowed a football; i can't up his prey size and i don't want to try and power-feed him. i can't catch up to 4 years of underfeeding in the 8 months i've had him.
i'm just rambling and getting thoughts out. thanks for reading.
