How much to feed

A starting point, per day, split across two meals. Adjust by what you see over a fortnight rather than by the chart.

WeightPer day
6 – 10 lb⅓ – ½ cup
10 – 15 lb½ – ¾ cup
15 lb +¾ – 1 cup

Switching over

Ten to fourteen days, not overnight.

  1. Days 1 – 3 — a quarter of the bowl
  2. Days 4 – 7 — half and half
  3. Days 8 – 10 — three quarters
  4. Day 11 onward — all of it

If anything goes sideways, stop where you are for a few days rather than going back to the start.
