My 14 year old, 700 gram adult male corn finally, FINALLY ate after nearly 3 months. I'm so relieved but also a bit nervous about a regurge.
He shed twice during his hunger strike because he banged up his head trying to escape in the search for love.
Sleenkie was eating small-medium rats (before I learned that rats weren't that great) and this was a hopper mouse so it took all of about 3 minutes for him to swallow it. Now he's looking for more. I'll wait until the hopper is thoroughly digested before offering him another. I bought a package of 3 hoppers that I'll feed him before switching him back to adult mice.
