Caulker baby not eating! help!

flyman Dec 09, 2018 06:50 PM

My little guy hasn't ate in 6 weeks.bought as a hatchling 2 months ago and told was eating live. He has ate once in my care(f/t fuzzy). Last meal was rather large for him, I know they like smaller meals. He shed fine, is still active and looks good(no loose skin). I've tried live,f/t,paper bag trick, etc.
He is housed in a rack system, 90 degree hotspot. Maybe just not hungry yet? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
