I've had my adult corn for about 4 months now and when i got her they told me she (who i think may be a he) is eating chicks so i carried on feeding chicks then found out there not as nutritiouse as mice and rats so i tried her(possible he) on mice and she wouldnt take them then i put a chick in and she took it straight away how can i change her food so she's getting everything she needs? |

de-frost a mouse and a chick in a sealed bag together for about 12 hours, then drop bag and contents into some warm water for about 1/2 hour. try only feeding the mouse not the chick. |

you could try scenting the mouse with the chick, let them defrost together and or get some blood from the chick and wipe it on the mouse. |

it's true the nutritional value of chicks is rubbish compared to mice as a staple diet. i've also heard it makes their poo absolutely disgusting too lol
there's various things you can try though, scenting the mouse with a chick, jacketing a mouse with a chick, feeding a chick first then following on immediately with a mouse.......some times it takes a while to convince them so just persevere and try not to lose heart  |
