On 1/5 my burm shed, I measured him and he was 4'4". He ate 6 meals, all medium rats, one at a time, and shed again on 2/6. He was 5'1" when I measured him on 2/7. He at 10 meals after he shed, all large rats, some 2 at a time. He shed again on 3/6, and when I measured him he was 5'10". Just thought I would share some info on how much my burm is growing and how quickly. This constitiutes into 1'6" of growth in almost exactly 2 months, and only eating 16 meals. All the meals leave lumps in him that are about 1.5 times his girth.
Damon, I have not been able to weigh the meals, like we discussed about 5-6 posts down. I fed him again last night though and he ate 2 jumbo rats, at about .75 lbs a piece. I will keep everyone updated on the weight of the food I am feeding and how much of that goes into growth, if you are interested.
Just some info I thought I would share,
Jason
