I don't know his hatch date. He was sold to me as a "yearling plus" in November. No way to know.

I gave him two fuzzies tonight, each just slightly less than his diameter. After the first, he had a big bulge, and I was doubting myself, but after the second he didn't look that much bigger... He's so funny, he had to carefully press his jaw against the floor to realign it before going off to get the second fuzzy. It's only the second time ever I've given him two prey items.

He's gaining weight nicely, though. I think he was 30ish when I got him in November, and he's 45 now.

I'm wondering if he'd do better on a five day, single fuzzy schedule. I _know_ he'd be happier, even though he is technically an adult.

Sorry for hijacking the thread, Jim.
