    Re: Feeding frustrations!!!

Well, I just went to feed her again last night (I offer a ft rat about every week) and she struck it and I thought that’s great she’s going to eat it. Come to find out I open her tub this morning and the rat is still there- she never ate it! What the heck? I’m not sure why she’s become more of a finicky eater she always used to be ravenous...of course double checked husbandry and I don’t think that’s the issue- (I have her in a breeder rack with hot spot of ~90 and rt ~78 deg F, humidity around 60%)

    Any ideas why this is becoming a trend? Has anyone experienced similar? What can I do to get her back to eating consistently the way she used to?

    thanks so much for any input!
    Hi

    When they get to around this age many of my Royals simply prefer to be fed every 10 to 14 days ..

    There will be the odd one around that will eat every day if you offered though
