"Sorry - I don't remember the specifics behind this girl - how long have you had her, how long has she not eaten, was she a good eater prior, how is her body eight proportionate to her length, what is your concern that she is not eating (at this time of year most balls are still off feed)?
Sorry again if you already discussed this, just cant remember your situation."
Had her about 6 months. she had not eaten for about 4 months when I finally tried assist feeding a mouse fuzzy (before that i had tried nearly everything else, ever species, every trick, every time of day). Got her weight back up even though assist feeding is a PITA. She is still at an ok weight but id like to see her fatter and i dont want to skip any meals until shes up to par
my concern is that she will NOT, in the 6 or so months I have had her, eaten willingly. she has never even shown interest in food until the live adult mouse today. she is aggressive and disinterested in surroundings. she doesnt explore and wont be tamed
my concern is her health
i want her to eat of her own volition and not be stressed
