well i just offered Bliss a nice warmed up 50g rat weaner...
she slammed it harder and faster than Oscar does...
and she ate it faster to...
So i am happy and will feed her again in four days time..
she desperately needs weight on her, she is so thin...
Anyway, just sharing some good news.... |

| I would think she wouldn't need food more often than every 10 days at most. |

but when? her weight last time she was weighed was at 1050g
which i know by her condition is underweight..
i wont be breeding from her this winter, i think she is going to need twelve months to get back to good condition... |

well i just heard back from Bliss's original owner..
the reason she is so light is because she was a non feeder and would only eat chicks and an occasional mouse..
Bah Humbugs...
to date she has taken four single feeds and her last feed i upped her to 2x50g weaner rats, she is feeding like a trojan for me,
I feed her last now in case any of the others refuse then she has it...
She is for me an aggressive feeder so much so i need longer tongs..lol..
so i suspect her set up was not right, or i just got lucky....lol... |

| Chicks are also very cheap, so it could have been that too. |

yeah maybe, but it would explain her weight...
anyway, she is feeding that is the main thing and i am now upping her to 8 day feeds before going to ten...in the next few feeds... |
