Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:54:10 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 |

Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:50:38 you should leave him totally alone till he has shed his skin,
only water changes |

Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:49:14 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. |

Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:46:36 do you think i should leave him until the weekend then?? |

Posted - 29/07/2009 : 18:45:18 After their eyes clear it can take up to 7 days to shed. |

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... |

that would be great i appriciate any help ill wait till after he has shed and try him then but if he doesnt eat after shedding think ill be getting a bit worried thanks again wolf!!
Just a thought, if he still shows no interest, you could try him on a live rat fluff to get him going... |
