Anybody else with a large Retic collection notice that not one of their retics eats the same way as another, not even close? For every group of 3 I take, I can tell a different story by the way each one eats. Take these 3 for example... I have a female purple, a female tiger and a normal male here. All of these 3 are around 9 months old... Each has been with me since birth. The male, he turns down food when offered more than once per week. He likes his meals thawed out and tong fed, once every 7 to 10 days, he won't even look at any more than that. My purple girl, she will devour any rodent put in front of her regardless of the spacing between feedings, size of prey and number offered. She'll take 2 large rats every 5 days if I wanted to power feed her. I do not. However, they must be served on tongs, and must be Warm or she won't accept. And then there's the tiger girl. A big eater when born, she will only eat food every 2 weeks at most for me now. Not warm and not from tongs, just thawed completely and dropped near one of her hides. At first I thought there was a problem but months later I realize she is doing just fine healthy as can be. Each has their own eating habit and personality just as we humans do! Anyone else see anything like this amongst their own retic collections?
