Funniest feeding

My BP has been on fluffs for a while because she wasnt eating, I tried giving her a large adult last night and to my supprise she took it.
The only problem was that she didn't eat it head to tail, she took the whole thing sideways.
This was the weirdest thing I've seen her do yet, simply because shes only about 10 months old. She also flung her head from side to side while eating the mouse.
Very funny thing to watch.

That's hilarious! I watched mine do something similar once, he had a hell of a time trying to get one of the legs to fold in the right way when he was eating it sideways. I wanted to help, but what can ya do?

If your ball can eat a food item sideways, it's time to start feeding a larger food item.

Was just going to say the same thing. If they can eat it backwards or especially fold it in half you should offer them something bigger. Of course if they are on mice and won't touch a rat then offer them more than one.
