My 800g male gets one medium mouse every 14 days. If I feed anymore often or larger item he pounds the weight on.
I have a 4 year old weighing just short of 600g he gets two mediums every 14 days, will soon be cut down to one medium every 14 days.
The four CB10's each get a medium every 7 days and weights vary between 140g to 385g.
I vary their diet slightly size wise sometimes feeding a small or two and the biggest adult gets the occasional rat weaner but only because I have some to use up.
