I have a female Royal that would not eat until I tried her on mice. Not in any hurry with her as she is only an '06, but it was worrying me that she refused all the time. Tried her with freshly killed mice and BAM. She also took a multi and then returned happily to mice - but - rats, forget it.

Have I now made a rod for my own back ? When she is adult just how many mice will she need Shocked

and will she accept frozen thawed 'cos I will not be able to provide enough adult freshly killed mice.... ? She is called Annie, as in Anorexic...... Wink

i have only one youngster who will eat rat pups. the rest wont look at them. the cinny wont look at rat weaners either, so she is on 2 mice just now (large). im sure they know it gets to us and do it for fun.
