Just for the sake of change thought I'd let you all know about a very fine eater !

My newest (Lucy) has now eaten on 23 consecutive weeks. The first 2 weeks I just left her food in the viv and she took it some time in the night. Every time since then she's struck, constricted and eaten immediately.

She's gonna be a big fat cow when she grows up

That's exactly what I'm hoping for with my girl. I hope it stays that way.

Not wanting to put a downer on things but they can and probably will change in the future.
I`ve seen their eating habits from all angles.
Normal female, ravenous feeder till 1500g, three and a half years later she is 1700g.
Male Pastel, 3 years old 600g, 6 years old 1100g. Now in the last year he`s put on 800g and hasn`t gone into a fast this winter.
Female Mojave bought at 50g, When she was 2 she was 2000g
Female Pinstripe born in August last year took her 1st unassisted meal last night
The one saying that i dislike though is "fussy feeder" its just not true in my opinion, they are just different
Good feeders, drop feeders, slow feeders, but they all eat when they are hungry.

Royals owned "lots"
