dexter ate a rat!

i am so amazed. today i was getting ready to feed everyone and since my ratties are breeding, i want to do live feedings of them as much as possible... so i decided to try dexter with a rat. he's a mouse man and i wasn't sure if he would be willing to transfer to rats since the other 4 balls of mine are eating rats.

and... i put the rattie pup (3 weeks old) in with him and guess what? he took it down and ate it.

i'm sooooooo pleased. i thought IF i could get him transferred over it would be hard to do. but he took it no problem. of course, i did let him fast last week so he was hungry... and probably better prepared to accept a different prey item?

i hope all the subsequent feedings are as easy. ;)

Congrats ... I hope he keeps it up for you.

That seems like it went pretty easy, and the week off probably
helped!!!

yippppeeeee he took another today and even faster than last time. i dropped it into his enclosure and heard him hit it within about 45 seconds. ;) i'm a happy girl!!!

normally i feed on tuesdays... but i'm super busy tomorrow so i fed today instead. ;)

good boy dexter... you are officially on ratties... ;)
