Re: Food quantity?
So 4 tablespoons a week? Might be ok, you could give more but it really depends on the individual. If the weight is ok then I wouldn't worry. Just make sure there is a hoard that is big enough or they can get stressed, it's better to give too much than too little.
I prefer to give daily as it gives them something to do, they do enjoy foraging. When you give them loads in one go they'll often take it all to the hoard and then be stuck around waiting several days for more food. That and I think it's better to give them fresh food so they don't have to eat food that's been out in the open for a few days. Depends on their habits though to be honest.
