So pleased. Our normal royal Nigel finally ate last night on a rat weaner after fasting for nearly 4 months. Its such a relief as he had started loosing weight at a rate of 18g-20g a week, a worrying time. Even the albino royal ate his mouse. He is not a regular feeder often skipping weeks here and there.
We now have two royals with full tummies, couldn't have a bigger smile right now  |

| That's awesome ^_^ How old is he? Royals can be tricky buggers when they want, when we first got our little female she was skinny and clearly hadn't been eating, I had to assist feed for weeks and now she strikes at anything vaguely mousey smelling. |

| That's fab news, our boy at work has only just started eating again. He had been fasting since December. Blooming snakes they cause so much stress! |

He was captive farmed and hatched 16th May 2012. He did fast for a short period around the same time last year but it was only for a month. I think he is a pretty good size for his age 3ft 6" and weighing 1.2kg so he was plenty big enough to cope with the fasting, its just that we never are lol. |
