Ok, so it has been about 3 weeks since I got the little Albino Carpet from Ben Siegel Reptiles. Night before last was the third time trying to feed him and he doesn't seem to show any interest in the live rat pinks I have tried offering... He looks so skinny and I am starting to worry. All of my carpets have always been amazing feeders so this is really my first time with one not eating. I tried feeding him a couple days after he came in, then 7 days later, then night before last... The last feeding I left the live rat pinky in with him over night. I checked this morning and he was curled up in the back of the tub right next to it.

He is in a 6qt tub, 78f ambient, 90f hot spot in back, on aspen, with one hide and water bowl...

I have informed BSR and this is what I got...

"Hi, I am having trouble getting the Albino Carpet male I puchased from you a couple weeks ago to eat. I was just wondering if you might know when the last time he ate was? and what he was being fed? I tried to feed him for the third time last night leaving him alone over night with a live rat pinky. He doesn't seem to show any interest in it."

"Try frozen thawed"



I'm going to try a FT mouse pinky in a few days, since I don't want to offer to much and stress him out more than he already is. Does anyone else have any advice? Comforting words? I am just getting worried since he looks so skinny...
