Hello to everyone! First of all, sorry for my English, it's not so good.
On the 30th of January I bought a pair of Gonyosoma bulengeri, from an unknown breeder but CB neonates. Their set up is a simple plastic tab
30x16x15 cm with water bawl for each animal separately. My temperatures are 26 -27 degrees Celsius in the basking Spot and 23-20 on the cold side. There is a newspaper for the substrate. The first day I had took the animals I tried to feed with pinkie mice, the male ate normally with a tweezer while on the female i left the pinkie in his place and ate it alone. After 5 days I tried again to feed while both refused either with tweezers or I left the pinkies in their places. After 5 days I tried again and the male ate with tweezer after a lot of effort. On the female I resorted to the method of assist and succeeded because she did not eat either with tweezer neither by left the mouse in her enclosure. Today after 10 days I tried again but again they refused the food by any method( and with assist on female). They have eaten a total of 2 times each . weight we have the male 14 grams while the female is 8 grams. Is there anyone with experience in the species to help me with some tricks tips to find a proper routine on my animals. I have experience with pythons but never with colubrids. Thank you very much in advance.
