New guy hasn't eaten yet...
So I purchased my little normal male on July 26th. He was 3wks old at the time. Since then he has been offered food twice, but will not take it. Offered once before his shed, then once after. Is it normal for them to go a few weeks without eating at that age? He acts afraid of it...first attempt he just tensed up and went into a ball, trying to avoid it. Second attempted feeding he did a false-strike and hissed at it, then tried to get away. I don't know if maybe he's afraid of the tongs? I've got it good and humid in there, and his temps are about 86 warm side, 75 cool. I don't want the Boaz ordeal all over again...he was a nightmare when I first got him...
