    Not Eating After Mite Treatment?

    Ever since i treated my young male BP for mites about 2 weeks ago, he has refused his last 2 meal offerings. He was eating great before this, no problems. Any thoughts on why the sudden change of heart?

    Mites can be extremely stressful. If you have treated and the mites are taken care of it may take a bit for them to get back on track. If he was eating great before the mites you probably don't have much too worry about. I'd leave him alone and try feeding once a week. Again, that's providing the mites are eradicated.
