Let me give a little more detail on what I mean by the use of the term "overfeeding." Your temps can contribute to overfeeding. For instance, if your temps are low, it will take your
BCC (or emerald) longer to digest its meals. You have to slow down your feedings with lower temps (including ambient temps). If you feed on a schedule, this can cause problems. Study your animal to get a feel for how it is processing its meals under the range of temps that you provide for it.
