I purchased a 1.3 trio of het hogs with 1.2 adults - all eat fine. The yearling female will not eat - looks healthy, acts healthy, but never takes food. Been bout 6 weeks now. The person I purchased them from says she was a bit picky.

I have tried live rat pinks and f/t mouse hoppers. She has been housed in a 28qt box with hide, bedding is aspen. I moved her to a 6qt box for 3 weeks and she did not eat then either.

She stays right up against the front of the tubs for some reason. Back of tub is 88 and front is low to mid 70's. I have double and triple checked temps.

Please advise.

Thanks!

WJ Long
