a little down

well, things with me and rex have been goin great...until now. hes not eating. i know its common, and not a big deal, but its a downer when they dont. kinda makes you feel like you did something wrong.

?? How long has he not been eating?

this is his 1st time not eating while i owned him, thats why i say its no big deal

Yeah....try not to let it get ya down! :) I know...easier said than done...but try. Was there any specific event that led to him refusing his meal? A trip to the vet? A change in his cage?

he went 2 tha vet last thurs

That could be it. I'd give him another week or more to settle back in. Keep handling to a minimum again, and then after that week or so, feed him like you always do. He'll most likely take it just fine.

thx 4 tha help

My pleasure. :)

it happens rex. the one thing to remember is, be patient.

One breeder told me something that got me in the proper frame of mind when Plissken went a month without eating, he said "I have never met a BP that has not refused food at one time or another." Look at it as another facet of your BPs personality/habits,so long as your husbandry is good,it just comes with the territory. 8)
