    Cinnamon eating habits?
    Does anyone have good eaters that are cinnamons? I got 2 cinnamon based combos from two different breeders and they both are picky eaters. I'm just wondering how other cinnamons are. The ones I have are a 1.0 pewter and a 0.1 Sterling.

    My one and only cinnamon female, while hands down one of the most amazing cinnamons I have ever seen, is also a ridiculously picky eater. She should have been ready to breed last season, but I'll be lucky if she's ready next season.

    I have 2 cinny females and a pair of pewters...3 of the 4 are amazing eaters, and the other one is the pickiest I've ever encountered, she's nearly 3 years old and only around 700 grams.

    My silver bullet has never skipped a meal, but she's still tiny.

    My female cinny het albino wouldn't eat for the longest time unless you left the rat with her and turned off all the lights and left the room. And if you came back before she'd gotten too far, she'd spit it out and wouldn't eat that week. The past 2 feedings I've gotten her to take it off the tongs and she's started eating with the lights on. I guess her confidence is building. :D She used to be quite snappy too, but she's calming down nicely.

    My cinnamon female is a hog and will eat her meal and someone else's meal if they didn't eat it. She's like the rat garbage disposal. She's from Sep 2011 and is already 1000 grams-ish.

    I had two other cinnys that I sold -- the female was a consistant eater. The male took a bit of time to get started but then ate consistently.

    My cinny female eats well.

    My cinny male is more picky.

    The hatchlings eat well, although I had two females that took a few tries to start, then ate very well.

    The adults are calm and easy, the babies were a little nippy.

    Yeah, i have a cinnamon female that was born probably mid-2011. She only started eating rats without assist feeding like 2 months ago. Now she is a machine.

    Ive had two cinnamons. still have the one. They both are crazy aggressive eaters. The male that I kept is from july 2011 and weighs in at 800+ grams. He dont miss a meal or a finger if you dont use stats lol. He is a little aggressive when you goto get him out of his tub but once you got him he's a puppy dog. the other guy hammered everything i put in his cage once he started eating but he was almost 3 months before he started eating on his own. but once he did look out. if a rat came to close to his rack he was trying to get it through the tub lol.
