If he doesn't feed would you then not handle for another week?

Or handle him after trying to feed him,If ofc he doesn't eat.If he does eat,handle him 48h after that.

Let him settle in for the week it should be fine.See how your first feed with him goes,then take it from there.

Once he's fed and fully eaten the rat/mice,should start cruising around looking to get out of the feeding tub.Don't mess around with him,pick him up nicely and place him in his rub.

Well I got him Saturday, so should be then but the guy in the shop said he has his feed every Thursday but that would mean he had only been left for 5 and a half days.

Sat is fine to,if that makes it a full week.As long as he's had his settling in time.

Don't think they really care what day it is :) if you want it feed on sat,just change him to sat :)

his rub is tucked away ontop of some tall draws in my bedroom and I've only been in to change water yesterday so he's had plenty of time to himself. I even covered the warm end so half of his rub was in darkness.
