I did put her on a little diet for the past months because I dont want she's getting fat; 1 mouse every 8 to 14 days,
and since 3 weeks I do feed her 1 mouse every week again.

I do feed 'adult' mice; subadults between 20-25 gram.

Maybe I am just too cautious, but I would monitor her weight and possibly take her to a vet to make sure there isn't an internal problem causing her to grow so quickly. It doesn't sound like you have been power feeding her which is a big no-no in my books lol.

She really is a beautiful corn. Hopefully she is just a big girl and it doesn't end up being something that shortens her time with you. :)
 
I think she's just a quick grower, I did feed her cut pinkies/fuzzies etc when she was smaller; that made a big difference in growth.
But yes she's big; that was why I did slow her a bit down; I dont want her to grow to fast or getting fat or unhealthy.
I do let her grow this year and hoping she will give me some nice babies in 2008 after a good brumation (with some heavier feeding I think she could be ready this year; but I dont want to harm her in any way). Her future mate is still very small.

Next month she will be housed in a larger and more natural viv, giving her some more exercise ;)

I can tell you really love her and am happy she has such a good owner. I can't wait to see those beautiful babies. :)
