its dependant on age and not size of food i believe. So every 5 days will be fine until they get older then every 7. I feed mine every 5-7 days regardless. Havent fed indy in 2 weeks now! Not seen him to feed him bless. Now he is shed he should be out more.

it's not a huge increase in meal size (although it feels like a huge achievement ) you could go every 6 days for a few feeds then go back to every 5 days until he's around the 400g mark
