After four successful live feeds and my little guy nearly doubling his weight, I tried to give him a f/t mouse. I decided to use a separate feeding container until I get to know his personality better. I dangled it, he was intrigued, and struck it! I was so excited I thought for sure this was a success. After a minute of pretend strangulation, however, he dropped it. I thought maybe he was shy, but he made no attempt to revisit the dead mouse.

The next day I got him a live mouse, which he happily swallowed.

I feel like I'm getting closer
