Now that's he's eating again....

[jathoma]

Cain finally ate again after a 2 month hiatus (and before that had only eaten twice since November with almost 2 months in between successful feedings) and my question is this:

He's on medium sized rats (approx. 100gr each) and for his girth, these appear to be the right size (the large rats at my supplier just look TOO large for his size right now). He ate about a week ago and I'm wondering if I should go ahead and try again now or wait a couple more days to make sure he's digested all of his last meal. I don't mind trying, but after all of the rats I've thrown away (weekly) in the past 7 months, I'm curious what others thoughts are....

(Just for comparison sake, I bought him at about this time last year - he was very young, maybe 18 inches - and now he's about 35 inches. At that time, he was eating every week, but he was also on mice for the first 7 weeks I had him, then I switched him to rats. Even then, he was eating weekly. I'm wondering if this is the time of year where he'll go back to a weekly feeding or if his last meal was just a fluke!)

Thoughts?
