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

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.

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... |
