I have an '07 female that was a big problem feeder for me. She would eat only when she wanted to, she was kind cranky .. more shy than angry, but she most certainly didn't want me touching her. When she would eat she would eat 1 live mouse. Not FT, not rats of any size .. not 2 mice, 1 ... mouse. Obviously that is hard to get her to breeding weight, but what can I do but offer her food and hope she takes it.
The past month she has turned around entirely. She has gone from shy, to wanting food anytime I open her tub. Last night the rat (yes, I said rat) didn't have a chance to touch the bottom of the tub before she took it.
It's kind of exciting to finally get some weight on her.
I guess I am just sharing my excitement!
