Hi guys, just wanting to ask about feeding with my 11 month old MD. She's just moved up to fuzzie rats from pinkies. I fed her one last night and she absolutely annihilated it. I'm sure she'd eat another very happily and the lump in her tummy isn't that big at all. Is it alright to feed her another one today?
 
I wouldn't feed her another today I would wait a week and try her on the next size up (hoppers) and see how she goes. But from what you have said she will eat it easily.

My diamond intergrade is about the same age and eats 1 weener (50grams) every week and it weighs 251grams at the moment. How much does your md weigh?

MD's will grow very quickly if you feed them weekly, I feed ours every fortnight and have been doing so for the last 3 months. He will be 1 mid jan and I will upgrade from fuzzy rats to hoppers then. He has grown heaps in the last 2 months. Here he is sharing the dining room table with a 8 1/2 foot Coastal last feed and the last pic is from middle of October so you can see how much he has grown in a bit over 2 months
