Was suppose to feed my bp tomorrow but since I tend to be an impatient person at times I decided since it had already been three weeks since he ate, They told me it was 2 weeks since he ate at the store and I've had him a week tomorrow, I would see if I could draw him out to eat.
I took a little bedding from the two rats I am keeping and put it right outside his hide. Right away he stuck his head out and started to flicker his tongue. He came out a good ways from his hide and was sniffing around. I took this as a good sign that he was going to eat. So I pulled the rat out of the fridge and put it in some hot water.
After some defrosting I picked the rat up and started to use the blow dryer on its head. My bp had already gone back into his hide and was laying with his head very close to the opening. As soon as I turned the hair dryer on he slowly started to come back out. I inserted the rat down towards him doing the little dead rat dance. It took him less then 10 seconds to snap it up and pull it back towards his body.
Now I tried to get this on video and stupid me had it all set up but one minor little thing. I forgot to hit the record button....LOL
I did get a picture of him though. He has the rat right on top of the head.
Just checked on him and in less then 10 minutes he already has it down.
