4 inches including his tail? Just give it a little bit, enough to cover the bottom of a gatorade cap kinda.  If it eats all that, give it a little more the next time.

You can feed him a bottle cap full every couple of days.... by bottle cap full I mean a juice bottle or as stated above, a Gatorade cap. He sounds like he's almost adult sized so he doesn't need to eat every day.

You only need to feed him 3 or 4 times a week, I recommend supplementing with crickets once each week as well (maybe once every 2 weeks?). Insects add a lot of protein to the diet, and you'll notice his growth rate is much faster with insects than without.
