    Ok Ozzy is going on since 10/10 not eating.
    What is the longest time your bp has gone off feed???

    It doesn't appear he has lost much weight, I figured he would eat after shedding, but no go.

    He doesn't even look at the damn rodents :cry:

    Last year, Goblin went off feed for about 4 months. he didn't really lose any visible weight, and he resumed eating. I only offered him food every other week, during the fast.
    Sounds like yours is off feed for the breeding season. It might be a bit annoying and scary, but he's really not in any danger. My pessimistic self, is just waiting for Goblin to refuse a meal. :)

    Thanks guys I feel a little better.
    I was a little off on the date, it's been since 10/2

    He is also very active, more than he has ever been.

    I call Ozzy a he but I am not quite sure if he is or not.
    He went off feed in July for a bout 4 wks but I figured that was the stress of moving him into a whole new set up and even in a different room.Once he seemed to settle in he went back to being the good eater he had always been.

    We always talk about the stress to the bp but what about the stress we get.

    My Betty has been off feed now since August. :cry:

    She looks fine and is active. I even took her to the vet to have her checked out, he says she is fine.
