Feeding schedule

So far, one of the 2 C. orientalis I have has been eating. On caudate culture, it reccomends feeding them 3 time a week as much as they will eat.

After watching one gulp down several bloodworms and 3 earthworm chunks yesterday...I thought he'd be full. I was trying to tempt the other one to eat(that one must be more stressed, and only made a rare half hearted attempt to snap up a piece...and failed of course)this one comes along in and eats several more bloodworms.

Do they know when to stop eating?
 
Not to sure it makes a difference...but I meant blackworms.
 
they will eat a ton of blackworms and will eat as much as you will feed them pretty much. i know most places recommend feeding once every 3 days i feed mine 1 time a day but in small portions and they do fine no waste food and they are all healthy and active.

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
