So far he has been a really good feeder, but because I had resorted to feeding two rat pinkies weekly he hasn't gain weight in three weeks (nor has he defecated in over a month).
Do you think it would be ok to feed him one of these tomorrow (it is his feeding day)?
A month without poop is okay. As far as the weight gain goes, has he literally not gained a single gram or is it just minimal? If he will eat mice, stick with that. There are pics all over this forum that compare rat feeders to mice feeders and the difference is almost non existant.
