Eating after Brumation

TheBeard9789 · Apr 23, 2021

I figured id ask I'm very new to brumating but my Male seems to be out of it it seems so my question is he lost 30Grams during his "brumation" period and when he eats he will breath heavy in between and it made me question "am I feeding him to much" like can he physically eat too much after not eating for a few months during his brumation period? Should I slowly increase his feeding and not go full throttle? Or is it nothing to worry about?

Hi there, it's great that he has such an appetite after his long nap but you can feed him smaller amounts twice a day rather than a huge meal all at once. Is he active + back to normal activity ? How much and what do you feed him ?

Hes back to normal as of right now but I havent really let him chase his supper I hand feed him I would need to feed him in a smaller enclosure if I decide to let him chase his food hes getting crickets dubia roaches and he occasionally snacks on greens hornworms and mealworms and about feeding I feed him multiple times a day so when hes full he will stop eating and lay under the lights
