My Veiled is about 5 months old. When should I start feeding him every other day? How much should I be feeding him now?

Do you've a male? Some people start feeding every other day at a year, usually the 12-18 mark you can start every other day. At this point, you should still be feeding every day. About 15-20 size appropriate crickets.

I usually let my males slow down themeselves. That is usually at around 11-12 months.

How about females? This topic is of interest to me as well.

I started feeding my female only 4x's a week at 6 months. I also lowered her basking temp to 80 degrees ( this is for my female panther)

I am wondering what you temp you had her at before she hit 6 mos?

85 degrees is what she was at when she was young.
