A rescuer/rehabber friend in Florida sent three everglades and one yellow rat up Thursday.
The yellow rat and the largest of the three everglades ate this evening.
The other two everglades are non-feeders and I am hoping to get them eating. She had been tube feeding them.
I did manage to get a pinkie head down each of them. I would much rather force/assist feed them as opposed to tube feeding.
If they hold the pinkie heads down I will continue on that course. If not I guess I will go back to tube feeding.
Anyway, I will post pics as soon as I get the time.

They'll need some time to get used to their new surroundings and settle in. I also wish you good luck.
How old/big are they, and why were they being tube fed? Just wondering.
