Hi, ive got a bit of a problem feeding my 3 year old female. Last week she refused her first meal since ive had her, after trying for a short time to get her interested in the mouse with no luck i returned her to her viv. I thought that she may be off food as i read they go off it near breeding time, and she has been unusually active for the last month.
I tried to feed her again tonight in her feeding tub, but she was more interested in escaping than eating a mouse. After 40 mins of putting her back into the tub a waving a mouse at her i returned her to the viv. I sat the mouse on the lid of her hide and placed it just inside the door of the tank and closed it, by the time i put the tub away and returned she was eating the mouse.
Im glad that she ate but i dont want to start feeding in the viv and why wont she eat in her tub. Has anyone got any ideas, thanks.
