8 months old and eating me out of house and home.
She would make you go broke if you fed her as much as she wanted.
Hope the next owner has a LOT of frozen rats ready. :D

Awww that's my little piglet isn't it? Don't worry, have my own breeders as well as Rodent Pro who comes to the Columbus show each month :D I am thrilled she is on F/T, so I don't have to switch her over. Can't wait to meet her!!!!

Don't worry hun, Steve knows what he is doing :iagree:
He is one of the good guys, wouldn't buy from him unless I trusted him 100%.
Steve, here is her soon to be sister. Born the same month, just as much of a piggy, lol. Only a few grams off of what the other one is I think, she came in at 357 in the middle of December.

Don't worry. She won't regurge.
This one hatched the same day. Same appetite too. :D

Thanks for the kind words. This one takes the f/t off the floor of the tub just like my spider. Drop the food in and walk away and she'll go over and eat :D

Just clarifying. :D I was referring to the female normal not the pastel when I said she takes the food off the floor of the tub. The pastel flies out at you when the tub is opened and prefers to have the feeder wiggle first. He also had bad aim :rolleyes: .

That's quite the chunker Steve! :thumbsup:

These are my two piggy 06 girls -- neither of them will refuse ANYTHING and if they had their way, they'd eat everyone else's food. :yesnod: :NoNo:

I got Leilani at the beginning of June as a CH baby so she must be an April/May hatch:

And Maggie pipped on July 29th (Bill sent me hatching pics when he shipped her) but she's catching up to Leilani quickly. When it's feeding day, she knows it and will come flying out of her hide looking for her food and start pacing her tub while she waits for me to make my way down the rack. When it gets dropped in, she doesn't even let its back feet hit the newspaper before she's on it:

Look how much she's grown, Bill! Hard to believe this is the little girl that was nervous about hoppers when she was little. :rofl:

One appropriately-sized prey item (or two smaller prey items) per week, no different than before he was sick.
