So I dropped the rat in the cage and waited. Loki didn't move. The rat ran around for a little but and FINALLY! Some movement and a few tongue flicks out of Loki and I'm thinking boom! It's on like donkey kong. After that his movement seized. He seriously just like rearranged his self and that was it. Nothing else for 30 minutes while the rat on the other hand made himself at home on a corner and looks like he was starting nest. I'm going to try again soon but maybe remove his hides so it's one big open area. Can't believe now it's 3 weeks with no food after eating 2 rats every week. Really don't know what else to do at this moment.
