Okay so I have been struggling to get my new bp to eat. She was on live...so I bit the big one and bought a live fuzzy. She was left with it in a small tupperware thinging covered..overnight. This morning...she still has not eaten it. So now what?
Can I keep it alive? I went out and got some kitten formula and I did get a couple of drops in it. Then I set it up in a tiny plastic home with tissue and placed that in a warm spot. So ummmm what should I do with it? Does it have a chance of living? Should I try to feed it to my bp again tonight? Any other thoughts? I am very open to ideas.
 
I have much better results feeding BPs in their vivariums. I use paper towels as substrate for them, so it's relatively safe to feed in their vivs.

As for keeping the fuzzy alive, unless its eyes are open and it is eating solid foods, odds are against it. Try feeding the BP again in a day or so and if it doesn't take it then, either feed the fuzzy to something else or whack it and freeze it.
 
well...so far the dang little thing is eating the formula and pooping. And seems more active now than it was when I bought it. I won't say it will live quite yet...but its looking good so far. weird...
