Default my pain in the a~#*!!!

well this little fella has proved to be the most awkward burm i have had the pleasure of owning food wise! he is an absolute nightmare!! he really is an awkward sod!! i have FINALLY got him eating regular (ish) but only on chicks and hamsters!! anyway once he has bulked up a little i will try switching him back to rats...he is none the worse for his feeding habits just not grown very much...but his colours get better all the time and i think he is more than worth all the headaches and stress he causes me!

fantastic granite.
I had a problem burm, I had to skin a chick and wrap the rat with it.
I reduced the ammount each time and last week she struck a rat with no scenting at all.
each time before if I offered an unscented she backed away but struck the wrapped one.
