Question about not eating.....
I know that is isn't unusual for a BP to turn down a meal, but Dax hasn't eaten in 3 weeks now. He turned down food the first week, but I wasn't to worried because he was in blue. Even though he has never turned down food before. The week after we purposefully skipped feeding him, and then went to offer food last night. He wouldn't touch it.
We did the zombie dance with it for about 10 minutes, the heated the head and belly with a blow dryer and offered it again, nothing.
So we put it in with him and left it, he has eaten sometimes that way. He didn't.
He is active, eating, pooping, drinking, and looks good. Should I be worried?
On a side note, I'm sure this has nothing to do with eating, he knocked over his feeding tub last night, popped the lid off, and was sitting happily on the floor when I left the room to clean and fill his water dish. He was unhurt, and was cheerfully twining around me while I was inspecting him for any hurts from falling. Was he so bored with the idea of eating he just wanted out?
