Man, can this guy put it away. I'm used to scorps, but the appetite on my new 4.5" boehmei is amazing to me. Maybe it's cause it wasn't as well-fed at the pet shop, and that it molted the day I got it so it didn't eat for a week after that, but since it hardened from its molt last week, I have been giving it a cricket or two nearly every night and he hasn't turned one down yet. Ate a pinky two nights ago and another two crix last night, two more tonight. He's starting to look more like a she now that it's fattening up (I'll post some pics when I have time). I know that's probably too much to feed and I will scale it back, but man, what an appetite.
Is this species known to be a particularly big eater? CAN you overfeed, or will a T refuse food when full? If you have a boehmei or similar species, what is your feeding regimen?
Thanks,
John
