    If it is live then I would say try tomorrow. If it wont eat live tomorrow then it must be stressed out. So I would hold off for a week or so before you try again. Some peeps will tell you to wait a week at least from the start to let it get use to its new home. So its really your call on how you BP is acting and what you feel is right for your BP.

    If you do decide to try tomorrow I would only try for llike 2 min. Live feedings are usually immediate once the BP notices it. If it not interested the just try next week. It will get stressed if you leave a live rat it doesnt want in its tank.

    Re: new BP didnt eat today

    If you are going to feed live, it is always a good idea to get a small Critter Keeper and water bottle. That way you have a way to keep live rats for a week or so, in case you have a feeding refusal...
