So, my little juvenile redtail is ALWAYS hungry, it seems. I'm feeding her at least two rat pinkies per feeding, usually 6-7 days apart. But even the day afterwards, she has NO visible bumps, and is back to acting hungry. I want to move her up to rat pups this week, but I don't want to endanger her heath by overfeeding her.



So at what point do I just have to basically 'put my foot down' and say that she's had enough?
