Feeding is normal, non feeding when conditions are good is not.

I posted down below a 25 inch male, which means, they get much bigger then 75 grams.

Your task is to determine the animals health, then its supporting conditions. Not all individuals take captivity(a small box with limited conditions)the same.

Also, male hogs sometimes go nuts when around females. I have a male that will not eat if a female is anywhere around. Move him to another room and BAM eats like a pig, I mean hog.

Again, your task is to determine your animals health. Then compare what the animal is doing to your goals and its potential. Then change conditions to support that.

Best wishes and out hoggin I go, wish me luck
