Lo and behold, after taking a pinkie about 3 weeks ago I have tried more pinkies, fuzzies (frozen) even put them in gerbil material before feeding with no such luck. Today I introduced a hopper that was in a box which got lots of attention from my ball. He was all over it. I placed the live hopper in the tank, then added the ball. Much in anticipation, all I got was alot of nose rubbing between the two. Go figure? Has anyone ever experienced this, or have I adopted a fusspot? Also, I had read on these forums that a wild caught ball is harder to feed than a domestic hatchling, I have no idea where mine comes from. One pinkie in 6 weeks to me isn't good. Eyes, stomach, mouth and skin are all fine as far as I can see, and the temps are suitable too. 80F in the cool zone, 90-95F in the warm zone, plenty of moisture. Is there anyone who can help me with this? I will re-introduce the hopper later tonight when he is more active and it's lights out.
Thanx in advance,
Dan
