ok so got myself a darling 16 month old woma. hes just perfect except for one thing. hes not eating . ive had him a little over 4 weeks and in that time hes shed and pooped weekly. in good condition but would like him a bit plumper as hes dropping condition due to not eating. previous owner fed every 3 weeks. i have offered every week since he shed and he is quite interested in the food. and will come and have a spiff n check it out but then just slithers off like he cant be bothered. considering all the talk i keep hearing about how food orientated these guys are its not normal.. he was eating larger than what im offering at his previous home however if he doesnt eat it i dont have anything else that will and i dont really want to waste money/rodents. so i was going to give him two until he was eatiing consistently. temps are same as previous home and has never refused a feed with the old owner. having talked to him i was told to hold it or him or he wont take it.. tried that .. didnt work .. considering quail.. any ideas.. dont really want to brain a rat.. and my partner would kill me for getting rat guts everywhere.. also could it be caused by the change in weather? hes only 16 months but as im new to womas im not sure from what age they brumate from..
