Hello!
I'm just wondering whether I should be feeding Lady more than once a week? I feed her one big mouse on saturdays, she gets REALLY hissy on Wednesdays but then settles down again on thursday and Friday!

Is this just because she feels like it, or should I be feeding her more often (she is about 3ft)?

I doubt it's food if they calm down again before you feed her.

Maybe she just doesn't like Wednesdays - or your smell on a Wednesday??? You don't drink alcohol on a Wednesday lunchtime do you? My hoggy hates the smell of alcohol
