Finally!!!

[Brett89]

I finally got my butterscotch hypo to eat. I got him from Bailey n Bailey reptiles...great people by the way and very hepful but they were feeding live and i don't have a constant source of live feeders the rite size. He was only 2 months old though and he hadn't had a meal for over a month...i was getting kinda worried and he was looking skinny. i finally got him to take a F/T rat pinky tonight but i almost had to beat him in the face with it...not literally...but it took a few times of bumpin his nose with it to get him to strike then he missed and the i just set it in front of his face and he slowly grabbed it and hardly even constricted. I'm just so glad i don't have to worry bout it anymore. Sorry for the long post im just happy!

I can't see it =/ if you right click over the pic, go to properties, and highlight the URL you can copy/paste it here and that should work. Tim and Monica are both great people to work with! I'm getting a BP from them as well and will definately buy from them again.

Brett,
I'm glad to here that he finally ate. In the future, if he or any others give you problems, I would try a F/T mouse. And here is the pic Brett was trying to post.

Thanks Tim for the pic. None of the others have ever been a problem with eating, they all took there first F/T rats a week after I received them. He just didn't seem to want to eat the F/T because I even tried using a F/T hopper mouse. But im just glad i finally got him to eat. He is by far my favorite BP that i own. But that spider is a lil bugger...he keeps nipping and striking every time i reach in to get him for cage cleanings.
