    If you started pairing most likely shes not going to eat, Try every week though. She may eat at some point

    Re: big female stopped eating

    Most females go off feed during breeding season, I start cycling around this time of year and by mid december most of the females are off feed. If they look interested I give them food, but nothing to big(small to med rat). I would not worry unless you see her dropping weight rapidly.

    Re: big female stopped eating

    Let Big Gunns ask you a question. How much do you eat while doing the "wild thing"?

    It's actually a good sign...not a bad one. Don't worry about it and keep breeding them.


    "wild thing" means dancing to soft Christian music all you kids out there.
