Hey guys, was about to post earlier in the health section about Bell(my female lemon pastel) who was fasting since the 11th of Feb! She had lost a little under 100g since I last weighed her. She wasn't empty then so cant really be certain on how much she actually lost, so 10% give or take. I was going to ask for any hints or tips as I thought I had tried everything! Then I thought up a cunning plan involving my pet rats 
(Pet rats, not live food, and they shall never be live food might i add!) But I took Bell out of her tub and placed her into a different tub for around an hour, then I placed my 3 pet rats in her tub and left them to go about their rat business leaving their stink all over the place. So after an hour I took the pet rats out, and placed a d/f small rat in the tub and placed Bell in with it. To my surprise and joy she took. Couldn't of asked for a better birthday present!
Just though id share my good news as I am currently over the moon lol Thanks, Matt. |
