i just found some urate in my bp's cage today. normally i feed him when i see that. so should i wait till i see a turd before i feed him or feed him now? he is acting really hungry like he does when he wants food. so should i go ahead and feed him? (this is a continuance from a post a few days ago)

BPs don't poop very often, sometimes only once a month. Go with your nomal feeding schedule.

Over 300g I would think. A ball that size can be eating 1 or 2 rat weanlings every 5 days.

i noticed last night that when i fed him there wasnt a lump in him that i could see. i was going to get him something bigger but where i live the next size up is a small rat. and that is to big. thanks
