good news

at least for me So last week i tried to switch my bp to rats, good signs...he constricted and then just let go. I was pretty bumbed but i knew if hes at least going for them then it could be a good sign.

Then today i tried again but with a slightly diff approach. I thawed the rat in mouse bedding and thawed a small mouse. Then started with the mouse and he took it like usual...then right as he was about to finish i gently layed the head of the rat next to the end of the rat and he just continued eating not noticing his meal doubled in size It worked, and he ate his first rat ever...i hope i wont even have to use a mouse next week.

So for all who are trying to switch..maybe that'll help..? good luck and thanks for reading..hes a pic
