    Smile Got them to eat!

    After a month of waiting, our two BPs have finally eaten a F/T mouse. They were only used to live and had shown no interest in eating at all. Then all of a sudden I tried today and they just chomped them up. I felt so proud. The next generation of Mickey and Minnie Mouses beware....

    I do have a question... how long should I wait between feedings. I've heard a lot of different answers... two weeks to a month and a half... what is the REAL amount of time?

    Re: Got them to eat!

    Congrats!!! I know how you feel; my girl went on a 4-month fast where she wouldn't eat anything. I got so scared.

    Every 7-10 days for adults, every 5-7 days for babies.
