feeding ball pytrhons question??

madballs Jan 14, 2008 11:49 AM

i know balls can go months without feeding when they want to go off feed but not offering them food for 3-4 weeks is that a bad thing? these are all 1000 grams and better? thanks.

Always offer...If you have a feeding schedule, which you should, stick to it. If it dont eat this time offer next time. Kinda like taking medicine prescribed by your doctor LOL.

3-4 weeks is nothing, they can go much longer. I doubt they would even loose any weight after only 3-4 weeks.
