Ball stopped eating and has strange patch... HELP

[Marissa Simek]

What did you change three weeks ago?

Okay... I'm a moron I haven't changed anything in about a month and a half. At that time I bought him an entirely new enclosure because his old one was just way to small. But he ate twice after the change with no problems. I didn't change anything before he stopped eating.

Ok. One thing I would suggest, before you start using chicken broth, tuna juice, or braining rats, is to try switching substrates. Try putting in aspen, wait a few days and offer a meal. Sometimes it works, but I don't know why.

Well I'm glad I read this before I went to the store... I was just on my way out to buy more substrate. So I'll try switching to aspen and see how that works out.
