>>1. Okay would 2 large rodentpro rats a week work to get the female double het jan 04's for snows ready for nov? Would it harm them to feed them extra cause I have been growing them up slow?
>>2. My male double het is 6ft and weighs 20 pounds. Is he a good weight.? Do I need to feed him more also?
>>3. My 05 ghost female eats one large rat a week. She is already 12 pounds and 5 feet. she is more girth then my double hets would she be safe to breed to my albino in nov. I don't see the need to feed her much more cause she gains alot off of each weekly feeding.
>>4. My albino male dont put on weight he is 5ft and weighs 15 pounds do I need to fatten him up????

Your female is a full year at least behind proper breeding age. My advice is for you to go a bit slower, and worry more about the females maturity. Size does not mean mature. Breeding that female this year would be like getting a 12 year old girl prego. Might be able to, but still not mature enough for it.

I don't breed them, regardless of size, until they are 4 yrs old, AND, at a proper weight/size ratio.

My 2 cents.
