My sulcatas, redfoots, and Russians WILL NOT eat while I'm gone on vacation. My next door neighbor comes over, and gives them a head and a half of lettuce, a bundle of hay, and they just sit there, and do not eat. The male sulcata just sits inside the Dog house he uses as a hide the whole time we're gone. But, when I get home, the sulcatas devour 2 whole heads of lettuce, plus the yard. I just thought this was interesting. Do they "recognize" their owners, maybe?
