    Well they were feeding her one fuzzy mouse a week but those things are way too small. So I tried giving her a regular mouse the right size and this is what happened, heh. I got it out safely though. She didn't bite at me.

    @New2Dis I'm not sure I understand what you mean by copy/pasting the url?

    Okay so I went back to the pet stor to try and find some fuzzy rats but they don't have any. But until I can. Order some she's still going to need to eat, is it fine to feed her two fuzzy mice if she'll take them?

    If she will eat 2 then yes. Her dragging it into her hide and guarding it might not have anything to do with the mouse being bigger. Did you just stand there and watch her to see of she was going to eat it? If so she might of been distracted by you. I always walk away and check back in half hr or so. I would try the bigger prey in 5 days and if she refuses again wait another 5 and try fuzzies again. That's what I would do anyways. Good luck!

    Nah, I always try to leave her alone since I know she's small. But she even refused a fuzzy mouse today, so I guess it is back to the regular feeding cycle with her. Makes me sad, I feel like she's gotta be hungry, buuuut I know they'll eat when they're good and ready so we'll see how it goes. Thanks guys <3

    I made the mistake of trying to feed my first ball 3 days in a row. I know you want her to eat and feel bad if you don't offer but every time she refuses wait 5-7 days. I definitely feel you though my male super pastel still is giving me problems. He eats a meal and then won't eat again for 2-3 weeks. I always think what if I try again now and then I don't bc I have to remember what everyone on this forum has told me. You don't want to stress her out. I was thankful my male ate today since he hasn't since March 18th. If she drug it into her hide she is interested. Try with the bigger prey again next feeding time.
