My husband and I recently got a new sweet little Spider girl, along with a Pinstripe.
They were shipped to us all the way from Florida, and for traveling such a distance, theyre doing so well! They were friendly from thr get go, and even let us hold them for a couple of minutes before we placed them in their bins ro begin adjusting.
Fast forward to a couple of days ago, I offered them their first meals since being home. Bella, our pinstripe, took her live mouse hopper right away and did wonderfully. Charlotte on the other hand has yet to accept her first meal, and is been close to a week. I know she could still be adjusting and just may not be hungry. But she's refused a hopper twice and I was just wondering if any of you had advice for new BP's accepting their meals. We offered her a live fuzzie instead, thinking she may have been intimidated by her food, but to no avail.
Does anyone have any tips or advice? I know at this point she's probably fine, but being only 65 grams, I want her to start eating and putting on some weight.
Thanks!
