Like...

1. WHAT was it fed?
2. How LARGE was the item?
3. Did it take multiple prey items?

etc.

I have an '06 that is barely over 400 grams, and one that is close to 1000- so normal...say 500-600 grams?

I have a rescue runt female pastel the was hatch in 06' she didnt take any meal on her own or any thing larger that a fuzzie until about four month ago. she finally stuck at prey for the first time yesterday and ate. I assit fed her from 89 grams to 300 and was just wondering what the normal size is.

With assist feeding it is going to be under, but if it is feeding on its own now it will gain weight quicker.I have a female 06 that is 900 grams eats once a week a mouse sometimes two.I have a 3 month old baby I am assist feeding and she is gaining very slowly, she currently is 70 grams and her clutch mates are all over 150 to 200. It takes a lot of patients to assist feed for that long. Good job.

But I have a CH '06 that's 1100 g right now.
