Don't be discouraged, sometimes they just need to settle in before they're ready to eat.

i know, ive heard the tongs thing. the breeder sent me his feeding chart for her and shes ate successfully with tongs 7 out of the last 11 feedings hes given her since november 2nd, so i figured id try! if she didnt eat with tongues she ate when it was left overnight. only once did she miss a feeding. i also feel like for her age shes really small? but i dont know for sure. another question, if she doesnt eat, how long should i wait to try again?
