You are only shortening your T's life by powerfeeding....why not buy a juvie or adult ?

Couldn't agree more. Unless you have a specific reason to overfeed, then there's no reason to do it.

ok thanks how often shall i feed the little fella.

They're not a "slow" species as far as growing is concerned really, when i kept them i usually fed a food item just smaller the body size of the sling twice a week, this seemed to be sufficient for their growth and mouting regimen.
