After 3.5 months of breeding without feed!!

My monster of a feeder pastel makes a return to food!!
Woohoo! He was mantaining weight so I didn't stop him from breeding... but I was getting worried. But no more! Yay!

Yay!! :banana: My girl just came off of her 4 month fast a couple weeks ago. It's always a nice feeling, even when you know it's just a winter fast!! Looks like a nice pastel you have there too :D

It gets nerve racking wondering if they will ever feed again when they stop. but when they resume feeding its a good feeling right.:)

very right!
i was worried because i didnt notice till yesterday that i had him out for a friend to see him that while his weight was still ok,
he had gotten VERY skinny.
my bumble bee female is 7 months younger than him and
weighs in just under 780 grams.
he weighed in at 976g in nov. right before breeding.
and now he is a little under 820g.
and im expecting a MASSIVE poo from him after his meal.
he hasnt pooed in a month or so... just alot of urates,
and his GF, man its been a couple months since she has pooped and fed.
but i think she is gravid with his young.
so im not worried about her.


thanks!

Aww yayy :) That's a great thing to see, so relieving. I know it's natural for BPs to go off feed for certain reasons, but I know as a keeper it's probably very nerve racking! We love to see our BPs eating, happy and healthy!
