Hey guys, my leu. texas rat wont eat. She is eating a pinky mouse a week and shes about 18' long (6 months old). Last week she ate just fine today she only snapped at the mouse's leg and chewed it off. I tried tempting her by tapping it to her nose but she either shies away from it or gets it around the middle instead of at one end. I placed it in there with her and she picked it up like a dog and carried around her feeding tank then she dropped it. Its back in with her again now. Thanks!

PS-If you havent figured it out they are f/t fuzzies (2 grams)
