He did say she is eating live rat fuzzies but not when she last ate. I can't get live here, no one breeds rodents so she will have to go on f/t.

As I'm reading this thread, you sound just like a new parent to me :D

Beautiful new addition....congratulations!

I can definitely sympathise with you. I have a little Pin het Pied Girl that never had a meal from hatching.
She just refuses to eat.
At 37gr. I intervened and have assist fed her 3 meals now.
I will be weighing her next weekend to see if she has put on any weight.
Keep persevering my friend, you will win in the end.

It seems like feeding won't be a issue. I decided to offer her a f/t fuzzy mouse last night. Much smaller then she actually needs but I don't want them going to waste.

I got it nice and hot, did the zombie dance and she hit it harder then my last adult hit live. I tried a second one but she didn't want it.

Temp are good and she has retreated to her hide. I hate the settling in period, I want to start working with her so bad but I'll be good.
She did strike at me when I was checking temps, so cute when they try and be tough lol.

Never did find out if the paper towels should be dampened at all? So far I'm just misting the sides of the tub and the fake vines.

Ugg, found out she is three months. She seems way too small. Why do breeders do maintenance feeding?
