    Re: I think my BP has forgotten how to eat

    Last summer, he was eating every 3 - 4 weeks which was pretty unusually often for him. To say that he's an erratic feeder would be an understatement. The previous winter, he went for 6.5 months without a meal and we didn't push it. When he's ready, he's ready. In the past, he might go 3 weeks. . . or he might go 2.5 months. It's crazy making.

    I'll just hold off another few weeks again and see if he starts smacking the front of the enclosure, I guess. I swear he gives me dirty looks. Sorry these pics aren't of him stretched out to his full beautiful shiny self but he seriously couldn't be arsed.

    As per your request, I've just uploaded 2 pics of our boy. For reference, the circumference of my wrist where you can see it below him is 6.5"/16.5cm.

    Belly up just after taking him out earlier this afternoon, still tightly balled up.




    Flipped back over and just starting to get curious about what was going on.
