Last night I took a tub full of various frozen rodents out to feed the tribe a day early.

Badger the little guy struck in seconds, the baby pin ate after I put him in a ltr tub. Of course both Retics ate with enthusiasm lol, as did Baileys and Flake.
Best news of all tho is Slinky actually ate a mouse,,it was one I had miscalculated and was going spare. I placed it in used mouse bedding and dipped its nose in tuna oil. Steve had tried earlier with a weaner rat and although she showed interest she didn't actually strike..so this time I left it with her, this morning no sign of mousey.
The only refusal was Ella (Pastel) but I think she may be coming into shed.

So Slinky ate the medium mouse..way too small but better than nothing
