OK, so I fed Corno for the first time this afternoon. I was a little bit nervous but she had no problems! My son dropped the pinky in, she sniffed it a couple of times..... then ate it, job done in a matter of minutes! I'd been nervous reading all the 'what to do with a non-feeder' posts but it seems that although she needed help to shed, food was a different story entirely lol!

We weighed her too - she's a dinky little 9 grams, aww!

Awww, great stuff. That "will they won't they" during a first feeding attempt is always nervewracking!

Glad the feeding went well. 9 grams is hardly anything!
