    I don't keep retics but I think this advice can be applied to most captive reptiles. Whatever feeding schedule you end up going with, be sure to pay attention to overall body shape. If your animal starts to look on the plump side, cut back on frequency and/or size of prey. If they're looking thinner than usual, increase their intake a bit. Their general proportions shouldn't really change much until they start hitting puberty. Then you might see a little increase in girth, though nothing too drastic if you're aiming for wild type/healthy proportions.
