First, I'd contact the breeder, and find out when and what year your gaigeae hatched out. Should be easy enough to find out.



I haven't seen an excessive amount of gaigeae but I'v seen a fair number of them. And I'm not aware of any that became fully black in their first year. Give you snake three years to reach its' full black stage.



As far as feeding goes, I fed mine once a week. They moved up from pinkie eaters to fuzzy, and then hopper eaters rather quickly. After the first year I started feed them on full adults every four days, and think I could have fed them every two days w/ out any refusals from the milks.
