why would you not feed him the same amount? I would not change his feeding schedule just cause you wont be there, also I would also see if you can get your dad to handle him because if you handle him often then dont for two weeks he might be a little touchy when you get back, also your dad has agreed to keep the cage clean right? wouldnt want to come back with him living in a mound of poop.
