Re: Quick Feeding Question
Our little one just refused eating for the first time last night, but she just finished shedding yesterday too. She has her own little quirks, little signs to let you know what she is doing or wanting. For instance, when she is sleeping/napping, she tucks her head in her body to hide her eyes. When she is hungry, she goes into “hunt” mode either on top of or just inside her cave, posed ready to strike at something.
We have only had her since 7/11/21, and the kid we got her from said he had her a month and had only fed her once. For her size (she was roughly ~16” long, and 75/85g), we found she should have been fed about every 4-6 days. We have fed her 4x, both live and f/t, every 4-5 days to get her caught up. We started with live to ensure she was eating (given the lack of info) and fed her a f/t right before she went into shed 7/31/21. Yesterday, she was about 17” and 90g, so we have made progress. We tried another f/t last night, and though she did strike, it was more of a “get away from me” than a “yay, food” strike, and then ducked to the back of her cave. We left it near the entrance for 30 mins, peeked at her through a camera I have set up so we don’t disturb her, she just poked around it a bit but didn’t seem interested, so we took it out and let her be, will try again a couple days.
