Longest Off Feed?

[Earl]

My BP is still on his longest fast. Hasn't accepted food since mid October. I keep trying once a week but still no dice.


And it's driving me freaking crazy!!!!




But I'm okay. Really I am.

Thank you Ashley. If I have to at some point I'll eat one of the furry little rodents myself just to show the boy how it's done. It is a very trying situation but none the less he will learn the ways, I will teach him.

I mentioned I had a male in this thread that was fasting since october but after reading a few other responses I thought I should give moving him to a smaller enclosure a shot. Well I did that three days ago and last night he ate for me without a problem. It was a very exciting moment.

How big was his old tank and what did you move him in to?

Moved him from a 30qt tub to a 15qt tub and....BAM! Had to do the rat dance for a couple seconds but every prior week until last night he would just look at the rat and retreat to his hide.

I have had a female Royal stop eating for 22 months.
It was very worrying but she did not lose that much weight (never thought to weigh her)
She started eating again about 2 mice each week for about 6 months and then went on another fast for the following 7 months.

I have a female spider from 06 that hasn't ate in a year. She won't take anything from rats, mice and ASF's. She has been hovering at around 700grams. I guess it just happens.

I've noticed a seasonal thing with Monty.
In his first year he ate just about every week. His second winter he went off feed for Dec-March eating just once in those months before feeding regularly again until the beginning of Jan this year. I think partly it is down to room temp in a poorly heated big old house - temps inside his cage are fine with temp gun but the room air temp is not ideal. No easy solution to that one I'm afraid
