hi everyone,

i have a small collection of royals, which all stopped feeding over the winter. All but 1 have restarted in the last couple of months, she does come out and examine the food items but never eats. she is now starting to lose weight and was wondering at what point to try force feeding - this is something i have never had to do before. I did move her from a red bulb enclosure to a ceramic bulb enclosure during her spell of not feeding but all the others have adjusted to the same enclosures.

any advice would be gratfully appreciated.

Kenny
