hi,
i'm a compulsive optimizer, so I came up with the following formula to address the question of "how long do i wait to feed my T after its moulted?"
the integer part of (squareroot(legspan in inches) times 7) + 1
the code which you can paste into excel:
=INT(XX^0.5*7)+1
just replace XX with the legspan of the T in inches...
this yields the minimum number of days of waiting after a moult, before feeding.
some examples: 0.5" = 5 days, 2" = 10 days, 6" = 18 days, 11" = 24 days, etc.
think i'm nuts, or otherwise have a problem with this formula? i welcome comments!
the (very similar) scorpion equivalent of this formula can be found here:
