I keep trying to convince Shen to eat f/t food, I've got him on p/k rat pups with no problem but the drive is killing me. So I'm trying to "fake him out" with a live mouse dangled next to the f/t rat pup. Or at the very least get him hungry and/or confused enough to eat the f/t. Only problem is....I dropped the f/t rat pup before I could zombie dance it or anything.....now he's hovering over it, lying on it, adjusting his jaw in some sort of reptilian yoga exercise....but won't go for it. And there's no way in heck I'm going to reach in there and grab it right now. Hahaha.
Interestingly though, he scented immediately on the live mouse. Even though they were right next to each other he could discern which was which and was trying to strike at the live. I may have to re-think this plan.....if I can ever get the rat pup back out. Ahahaha....I haven't been bit yet, it doesn't hurt, right? RIGHT?!?!
