    Success!
    I've posted here about a female ch I've had since the 6th. (actually it's my room ates but I've been taking care of it currently making sure she's well started) and we got her to eat last night, we had to assist feed unfortunately but it went rather well. The first time she spit it out, the second time she gulped it down like...well it was the first meal of her life :-D

    she's got a cute little bulge in her stomach now and hopefully next week she'll eat for us on her own :)

    How exactly did you assist feed her?

    held her gently behind her head, used a cue-tip to assist with opening her mouth, and placed the 2 day old rat pink in her mouth and sat her down and let her go. The first time she drew back very quickly and dropped the rat, the second time she drew back, bringing the rat with her. I put her hide on top of her and put her back into place, and checked on her about 2 mintues later, to see her working her jaws over the rat. :)
