    Re: Normal Digestions?

    Unfortunately I did not get pictures of the digestion....but it was a combination of greenish/brownish liquid, some white solids spots and some greenish/brownish semi solids. Past digestions have been similar but I would say less liquidy.

    I've not heard about the handling thing, but that might be part of the issue. I typically handle her about once a week, along with the 8 mo male. My 8 mo old has eaten fine since I got it, even once I switched him over to f/t rat pups from f/t hopper mice.

    So when I first got my older girl I had her in a 40 gallon tank, temperatures were 85-90 on the warm side, and 73-76 on the cool side. A hide on both sides and a big bowl that she could submerge herself in entirely (and did on occasion). However, I recently switched her over to a plastic tub, similar to the one she was in with her previous owner, temps are similar, humidity is a bit higher because its easier to keep higher in the tub, I would say around 65%.

    I'm hoping that the switch back to the tub and maybe feeling a bit more secure will help get her feeding again, but I should probably stop handling her until I get her to take a meal based on what you've told me. I've tried both live and f/t rats, but she has not had an interest in either, and often seems more spooked by the live than anything. (again, this is what he said he was feeding her when I got her, AND i'm getting them from the same place he got them).
