while he is in shed? Eyes have clouded over for the past day or so and today is feed day..

He's naturally quieter so wondered whether disturbing him is a good idea. I think not but thought I'd get an opinion from the pro's!!

He's doing really well though and I'm very happy with him..Wink

Some will fed while shedding, others don't and get stressed.

If it did feed it certainly won't do any harm just the same as if you don't it won't hurt either Wink Laughing

I don't feed if I spot them at the milky stage as I have done in the past and the result was a problematic shed...if you do want to feed I would offer something slightly smaller than usual..
