    Glad you aren't feeding daily, whew! LOL What would be better (if you feel he needs more) is to alternate with a bigger meal of 2 hoppers. Try feeding two
    hoppers (one after the other), but then the next meal only feed one, & so on. That's what happens in the wild, not all meals are the same size, & for that matter,
    we all tend to over-eat now & then too (holidays!), but there's a big difference if we did that at every meal.

    See how he does with the bigger meal & plan accordingly to upsize his prey so he's only consuming one item. (that usually works best)
