    Re: Not feeding... perhaps a little overcautious?

    Simply moving a BP from one room to another can be enough to lead to a refusal or two.

    The important things here is that your animal is old enough and has a good body weight to endure a few skip meals or even a fast.

    If your setup is optimal another thing you can try to do is limit your handling for the moment being.

    Make sure to monitor your BP making sure it is well hydrated and simply wait it out, it knows how to eat and sooner or later will resume feeding.
