Just weighed Kane for the first time since he started eating again and he has put on a little over a 100g in a couple of weeks! And that was eating food a little smaller than he should be caused he refused to take what he's meant to be on...
Unfortunately though he's still a little lighter than average at his age according to Blackecho's chart...

Thanks I've been gradually moving his food up to get him eating and he's wolfing down everything i give him so I've gone back to his normal food size this weekend so fingers crossed

Hello Austin, I wouldn't worry about the weight thing too much. My royal Tia was 2 years old, 80cm long and weighed about 450g when I got her. After a proper feeding regime of rats every 2 weeks she is now about 1metre long and weighs over a kilo. She's been fasting now since the beginning of November, but this is normal. Kane is eating which is the main thing, so he'll soon catch up.
I first got really worried when he started his fast but after reassurance from the lovely forum i felt so much better, up until the other week i hadn't seen the feeding guide (i think it was made by Blackecho?) and I've since started following that... Glad to hear she put the weight on
