I think Charger is 7 years old, eating guinea pigs. If memory serves. Last I recall, she doesn't care for rabbits.

Beautiful I love the comparison at the top where you are in the picture it really gives more of a reference point knowing you are a normal size human and looking at her I can really realize how large she is.

Their metabolism slows down as they get older. Feeding every week would be feeding too soon. As adults, 2-4 weeks is the more commonly accepted feeding interval.

Very nice, Raze.

Just like Rick said, once a week is way too often for an adult. I feed my two 3 year olds, and my 7 year old every 4-5 weeks.
.
The idea isn't to raise them big, but to raise them healthy. The size will come in time.
