There is no real feeding schedule, it can depend on the age, the conditions they live in, the amount they need, the amount of growing they are doing, and many smaller meals are better than one big meal.
My albig only eats about 1 lareg guinea pig a week but sometimes she eats several peeps, or 2 medium guinea pigs. At one time she ate multiple adult mice a day, anywhere from 6-9 when she was around 3ft long. Depends on the age, at one time she ate 50-75 crickets a day as a hatchling, multiple quail, mice, roaches, etc.
The cage is enough space for a single large monitor. It has a couple of feet deep of dirt, some objects chained up to climb, a large water dish (not enough to soak). The cage is the size of a small bathroom, is made from almost 1 inch thick plywood lined with FRP, and sealed in all seams.
