Thanks. I'll keep her on live for a few more weeks then. The breeder suggested feeding every 4 days, instead of every 5 like I had planned. Does that sound good to you guys? Every 4 sounds awfully frequent, even though I know some people do it...

Congrats!! She is gorgeous. Sounds like you have the husbandry under control.

I feed mine every 5 days, but a lot of people feed every 4 days. It is personal preference. I just want to make sure that when I offer food, they are going to eat, so I wait five days.

Hope this helps.

Just a little update:
Makena's doing great. She's pounding mice like a champ and took her first F/T on Monday (1st time F/T was offered). She had a great shed and doesn't seem to mind me handling her a couple times a week. She's up to 257.95 grams as of today and has really filled out, but she hasn't pooped in a while. She looks like she has a big ole turd in her now, so we'll see how she is afterwards. I'm just happy that she's growing well and eating like a champ. I'm quite attached to the little squirt!

She just took a poo. I'd drop her down to 220ish now...
