Re: Help! baby rosywill not eat

What are your housing specifics?

- Temps (warm and cool sides) and do you have a thermostat?

- Humidity

- Enclosure size

- Are you handling him?

- Are you feeding frozen/thawed, live or fresh-killed?

Once we know the answers to these we can help you better.

Re: Help! baby rosywill not eat

try a frozen thawed, use a knife tip to puncture the head a bit. it's called "braining" the smell drives my picky ones crazy and they eat everytime
