I just received my baby blackthroat, as some of you may remember from about 30 posts down. He's in a habitat that conforms to his needs, according to my research. One thing I didn't think of to research, is how do they eat. I'm used to lizards who eat every day. My blackthroat has had two huge meals among his avid cricket hunting: a lizard half his size, and a live mouse that he could barely finish eating, but boy, was he highly motivated. I'm getting him hoppers for next week.
My question: *Is my blackthroat a natural binge eater* who when he gets a big meal, he spends a few days lazing around between his cool end and his basking zone? (He drinks from his bowl, to my relief.)
