    Im so happy!!!

    SO, my BP thyme (my 1st BP, petco bought, been giving me hell, but my favorite) has not eatin in 5 weeks. He is also shedding...has been for a week. So, i havnt handled him in 2 weeks so i took him out today to see he only got his old skin off his head...nothing else....Weighed him...only 45g. So, i soaked him in some warm water as i cleaned and re-setup his tank (temp and humid wise, it was a tab hot, just reset everything and cooled it down to make sure it was right) Returned him to his home and let him chill for about...3hrs. Then offered him some food and....HE TOOK IT I'm so happy, i've been worried about him for it seems forever now. And when i was putting his tub back, he started working at getting his skin off!!! i'm so relieved. I just hope he keeps this up.

    Congrats! Sometimes my bp needs some convincing his food is worth eating, and I can see how easily a lot of pet owners would give up. Good for you for continuing trying!

    It was probably just the end of his winter fast or whatever. Or just needed that slight temp change after i cleaned his tank. Whatever it was i'm just glad he ate! lol.
