>>He always ate perfect for me with no problems but suddenly there is a problem. This is his 2nd week refusing food. Temps are fine at 82-90 24/7 and he just shed on monday night. I think it has to do with his varied feedings this month. He was given 4 thatwed mice 2 weeks ago because i had no rats left then i gave him a large m,edum rat which was way to big and it was live! my mistake...COuld that have anything to do with it? Anyway this week i am trying a frozen smaller medium rat and hes hissing at it....He normally eats it when i just lay it in the cage but now even with coaxing him by moving it in front of him he wont take it? Any suggestions would be great

>>Thanks,

Don't be afraid to ask that is how we learn. There are lots of ways to get back ont f/t. The best way I know of is to feed a smaller size stunner and as soon as that one is down and the stretch is over offer a f/t of the same size. Kepp this up every week or so until she takes a f/t with know prob. This should do the trick.
