One Little Problem....
After our training session on September 20, Megan and I decided that we were going to give Peaches her food for both Friday, the 20th, and Saturday so one of us wouldn't have to come in early on a day we weren't training. On Sunday, September 22, I went in to weigh and feed Peaches and saw that someone had fed her for Saturday, therefore Peaches got double her amount of food for two days. When I weighed her on Sunday she was 207.5 grams, 4.5 grams under her target weight so I fed her 13.6 grams since she was loosing so much weight since our last training session. On Monday, September 23, we went to weigh and feed Peaches and she weighed 222.2 grams, 10.2 grams above her target weight. Megan and I believe that with the extra food she was given and the amount of food she was given on Sunday, she might have been hoarding some in the bottom of her cage which we were unable to see because the food blends in with the bed of her cage. Luckily her vast weight gain didn't seem to effect her training, she still had plenty of room for all her sugar pellet reinforcers :)
