well i posted a couple weeks ago about my male hypo bull. he is right at a year and 4 ft. he was a great feeder and incredibly calm until a month ago. that is when he started being extremely hyper and stopped eating. the conditions are still the same. cage-4'x2' with hide, temp-72 low & 82 hot spot, and everything else i know of. he has pretty much calmed down now.
here is the catch. he won't eat. he was eating 3 f/t large mice every 4 days like clockwork. all he does when i put in f/t mice is drink the juice on the tray and push it around the cage with his nose. he has constant access to a large water dish so i'm kind of at a loss with the mouse juice thing besides him not eating in a month. he still looks healthy and is thick but i'm starting to get a little worried. anyone else have this happen? any suggestions? thanks...

Sounds like he is looking for a mate, this will pass, don't sweat it yet.

yes, i believe you might be right. i actually heard that a couple weeks ago on this site and it makes since. the thing that has me curious is drinking the liquid in the saucer from the f/t mouse but not eating it. also the way he will push it around the cage with his nose. this is my first time raising bulls to maturity and just something new. anyway, thanks for the feedback.....
