FINALLY!!! I just got to watch Malfoy take his first meal in months (his first meal with me)!!!!!
I decided to take the wheel off the mouse cage (one that hangs on the outside) and place it upside down on top of the tank. Malfoy came out of his hide looking, and I waited 30 minutes before I dropped the mouse in.
I am so relieved!
Best part is, my husband got the swallowing of the mouse on video for my son to see.
