ok i will follow your advice i only try and feed him once every 5 days sometimes longer ill leave him till sat and see what happens then the guy in the rep shop has asked me to take him in after shed and he"ll assist feed him so if he doesnt take it on sat im going to go down that road i think

you should leave him totally alone till he has shed his skin,

only water changes

How long since you last tried, don't try more often than every 5 days. If he hasn't shed then don't be surprised if he doesn't eat. I'd probably leave until after shedding personally.
longjon75 Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:46:36
do you think i should leave him until the weekend then??
Blackecho Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:45:18
After their eyes clear it can take up to 7 days to shed.
longjon75 Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:32:36
think so eyes went back to black a couple of days ago and hes been moving about no sign of shed though think hes hid it??

if he is shedding you will have to leave him anyway so just carry on as normal..

and even if he wasnt no you would not have to, it is just adding a bit of decor to his bedroom...lol...

i know you have him in a rub now, but what is it set up like?

this link will give you an idea on how to set up rubs for non feeders..

it is just a guide.

Just a thought, if he still shows no interest, you could try him on a live rat fluff to get him going...
