    Cool BP Feeding Advise

    So I currently have a juvenile Pastel and ever since he shed he refused to eat f/t hoopers. I was finally able to get him to eat a live fuzzy mouse today. My question is if I'm planning on feeding him 2 fuzzies, how long should I wait in between to give him the second one?

    Thanks

    Feed the second as soon as the first is all the way down his throat

    Im no expert but from what ive read, you can feed them right after the other but first wait for them to realign their jaws before giving them the second one.

    When I have to smaller meals I wait for the first one to go down. The. Offer the 2nd within a min or so and she had no issues.

    How long did he go? If he was eating hoppers before his shed, I would have waited him out.
