Is it time to slow down on feedings

[RikkiL]

Wall-e is a hoot so much personality!!!! He only eats when he is hungry. He has gone days with out wanting any bugs. But the last few days he is eating a lot more. I don't want him getting to THICK. So just asking does he look like he is a good weight or should we cut back ?

How old is he?
How much do you feed him in a week?

He looks OK to me. If he's self-regulating, IMO that's a good thing.
Mine does the same thing. He didn't eat for 2-3 days in a row, then today he ate 6 mealworms and a roach. Some says he'll eat 2 crickets; other days he'll eat 5 or 6.

He is around 10 months we think. He eats about 5 to 6 dubias a day if he is hungry sometimes more depending on the size of the dubias really. Also he will go 2-3 days only eating 2 bugs sometimes none.

Really depends on the size of the roaches cause I could feed him 6- 10 smaller ones and only 3 of the larger ones.

He looks good. Since he is starting to cut back on his own now I would take him to an every other day feeding schedule of 5 feeders.
