Running out of tricks, need advice

[Snaky]

Good to hear Stefan and hopefully she'll keep on eating from now on...
Fingers crossed

YES!!!!! I'd say that's a HUGE step in the right direction!!! Good job Stefan!!!

That's great news, Stefan. She must have read all your posts about force-feeding!

[Stefan-A]

Well, she did get a bit of a preview yesterday. "Holy crap, this guy doesn't know what the hell he's doing, I better start eating before he kills me by accident."

She hasn't touched the other two mice, apparently I was a bit too slow. Or maybe she's just planning to stay off feed until worms are available again. (Spoiler: They'll never be available ever again.)

Well, she also had an empty tummy for a really long time; so maybe one mousey filled her up for now. :-)

[Stefan-A]

I suspect that, too. But I don't know if it works that way.

I think I have a paper on that subject somewhere.

YAY! I'm glad she ate for ya!

[Stefan-A]

Still hasn't eaten anything else.

[drache]

give it some time
she may need to digest a little

[Stefan-A]

Yeah. As far as I can tell, she hasn't pooped since her first meal, I don't really expect her to eat again before that happens.

But I hope that she will.
