Just curious as to what would be considered as too much of a weight gain and what is too low and normal?
I weighed Marty on 30/06/2012 and he was 215g and weighed him again just now 17/07/2012 and is 246g is this about right? He's had 3 rat fluffs in between those weights and due another tonight.
Forgot to add they are both empty weights |

| How often were you feeding that looks like a good growth rate i think I've been feeding Marty a bit too small haven't really weighed any of his food as i just went of the weight range the shop i used had on there list but i think half the time the staff didn't know what was what so i found a new supplier and the quality of there frozen food is spot on but looked a lot bigger so weighed one today and it was 48g which is in the top end of Martys food range and weighed one from the place i used to go and it was only 25g |

Just fed every 7 days upto a kilo, every 10 days upto 1.5 kilos and every 2 weeks from now on when he is feeding.
Rat size 10-15% of Duke's weight. He is a good feeder when he isn't fasting. |

| Weighed Marty again tonight after i found a poo in his hide and it looks like feeding him the right sized rats is piling on the weight as in two just under 3 weeks he's put on more than 100g and is now 438g |
