Well, tonight was my first successful feed with everyone on F/T rats.
Prior to tonight my male pastel had last ate 2 weeks ago on a small rat, left overnight. He refused last week, but hit like nobody's business this week. Just a little tap on the nose and he struck.
For my normal girl she had skipped 3 weeks. Last week she was on shed, so that's no surprise. Prior I had tried just the rat the first week and a pre-scented rat the week after that. Tonight I didn't even get the rat all the way in the tub and she hit it. She must've been hungry. Just for good measure I went ahead and offered both of them a mouse too since they'd skipped meals. The girl took it, the boy didn't. They were my last 2 mice, so I'm anxious to get rid of them.
