Should I feed more often?

[771subliminal]

ok so i have to ask, i just got my guy about two weeksa ago. the guy i got him from had him on fish gravel with only a branch(which was too small) and a water bowl, in a 20 gallon tank. i now have him in a 55gal with a heat lamp, two hides and some aspen bedding. He was only being fed twice a month. Do i need to up it to weekly ?? hes about 4 foot long and about two inches(i guess) in diameter

1 you should feed him the correct size rat weekly
2 a 55 gal is workable i use a 70 just takes little more care, add some extra plants and deco for him to crawl round thru
3 get rid of the lamp and go with a uth your killing your humidity
