I need your help. I took on a "project" white lipped about 6 months ago. She has had a hard life. She has several burn marks on her side and looks to be in declining health. I have no idea how old she is. My problem is that she will not eat. She took 1 rat about 3 months ago and that is it. She is not losing much body weight, but I am beginning to get concerned. I have tried frozen, live, big, small. I have also tried Quail and chicks, but no luck. I have also tried letting the Beardie and / or Gecko's put their scent on the rat... Still no luck. I have tried heating the rat to appeal to her "pits"... Nothing works. I have been at this for years now and I am quite sure that the temp, humidity, space, all husbandry is good. Anyone have some helpful suggestions? If she doesn't start eating soon, I am afraid she will pass on soon.
