My new baby lavender male stopped eating this week. He ate last week, 1 day old pinkie on 10/13/08 and one on 1/16/08. He shed on the afternoon of the 16th and ate that evening.
When I offered food again on 10/23 he refused and he refused again tonight. (I was told to offer food twice a week and he is really tiny)
So I slit the pinkie, put him and it in a small deli cup, wrapped the cup in a dark colored washcloth, and put him in the snake room. I plan on leaving him overnight and seeing if he eats.
I know its way to early to worry, but I do just because he is so small!! He is half the size of my amel female and they were both hatched in August.
How long before I should start really worrying? Should I be offering food twice a week? Could he just be full? The female amel eats like a horse at twice a week. Opinions, please?
I don't have a weight on him but will get one tomorrow.
