I have a 4 month old coastal that I've just purchased. I've let him settle for 4 days and then fed him a fuzzy mouse - he's previously been eating single pinkies every 7 - 9 days. Anyway....he ate the fuzzy and had it midsection in about 4 minutes and was still showing a feeding response for an hour afterwards then he went to his hide overnight and is still coiled on his perch the day after in the ambush position. Should I try a second fuzzy next feed or should I stick with the single fuzzy or change to a larger size ie I have some weeners that someone gave me.
Thanks. |
