hey guys,
first off i wouldnt worry about them going off feed. somtimes hoggies just do this ive had some of my best feeders do it for months and months. what i usually try and do is wait a minimum of 2-3 weeks after i can tell they arnt interested in food that way they get nice and hungry. somtimes i just wait till they shed and that usually stimulates a good feeding responce. i also keep my western hogs alittle warmer then the rest of my colubrids i keep my cool side at around 82-83 and the warmer side 88-89.



good luck

joe schmidt
