Question with shedding- I know another shed thread?! Lol
I'm curious on what signs your BP gives you when he/she is about to shed? I feed my BP once a week, usually on Friday but I forgot to take rat out of freezer on Thursday so I was going feed him this morning. Well I open his cage and he (no clue if it's a he) is just laying there in his pretzel shape. I figured he was being like my gf and being stubborn and wanted to sleep longer. Well I was running my fingers on him and then was holding him and he still didn't want to get out of his pretzel shape. I put him in his feeding bin with mouse and he is ignoring it and just went back tightly in his pretzel. He hasn't shed for sometime now, and I know he is hungry because once a week feeding he memorized the day and if I'm late oh does he get nasty when is feed time. His color is good looking, black could be brighter but otherwise he looks normal. So I'm clueless if or when he's about to shed, and should I just put the mouse back in bag and put in fridge and wait till tomorrow to feed?
