    Arrow TRIED feeding..

    ah the wonderful first feeding attempt..many have tried, many have failed. I am one of them lol.Rocky decided he was going to turn his nose up to his first meal at his new home. I know this is a common problem, when should I re-introduce the mouse to him again?

    How long have you had him? If he is new, you should give him at least a week to settle in before attempting to feed.
