    My Spider loves to eat and will eat whenever I offer him food. My normal girl sometimes just doesn't want to.

    My normal is up to almost 1,700g now though, even being as picky as she is.
    What I found worked was offering her a mouse and when she gulps it down, I rubbed a rat gently across her snout and she finally took it. They're F/T by the way.

    I still have to feed her a mouse at first, but it's funky. After she eats the mouse, I offer her a rat and she gobbles it right up. I don't know why but hey as long as she's eating it's fine with me. She does go on an 'I don't feel like eating' binge every now and then for about 1-2 weeks but never for any extended periods of time.

    Some BP's just won't get as big as others so maybe your BP is just destined to be a small one.

    Congrats, you might have the first pygmy BP
