Going to try an respond to both April and Sauzo here. I should have tried chicken broth, thats the more recognized trick, i just didn't happen to have any but did have a can of tuna in the pantry. Def think the next attempt will be at night, he's clearly more active, nocturnal hunters and all, though for mice he'll eat whenever.
I have thought of just giving him his mouse fix until he outgrows it, gonna have to feed 2 then 3 at a time to get any real growth thought. Problem is that my feeder guy is like an hour and half away so i usually stock up for like 3 or 4 months between trips. Although the difference in gas, about 120 miles round trip, at $1.49/ gal aver ave 28 miles/gal ; talking about $9 to $10 in gas, but he charges me $0.80/mouse and the local petco is $3, so the trip pays for itself if i get 5 or more mice assuming, of course, that my time is literally worthless, lol.
Dang-it! i thought Burms were supposed to be garbage disposals!
