OK I am pretty sure that my male patel is on a hunger strike.
Eversince I took him in to have his prolaps removed he hasn't eaten. I would say close to 4-5 weeks now. I have monitered his weight and he has only lost like 50g.
I left a live rat is his cage over night and it was still there in the morning. (I left some rat food in the tank for the rat) I know they can go for 4+ months with out food. Just want to make sure that I shouldn't be getting woried yet.
His activity still seems normal and he is still breeding fine.
