 When to feed after a shed?
This is my first BP and he is about to shed, he refused the last two meals, which now makes sense. How long after he sheds should I wait to offer a feeding?

Re: When to feed after a shed?
Up to you. Some people offer on the next scheduled feeding day, others offer right away or within a couple days after shedding. Twix shed in the last 2 days and I just gave him a mouse and a small rat. I typically feed on weekends.

Mine eat while in shed. You could offer right after he sheds or wait til your normal feeding day.

My fire ate last week and had a perfect shed two days later.
my firefly refused to eat once and they next day his eyes turned blue. I fed him the day after he shed and he took it good.
