Hi all
Just fed pheonix and Morpheus for the first time pheonix just took it happily and swallowed it all down Morpheus wasn't interested at all at first so my husband brained the mouse and he eventually took it after trying sideways a few times first he then ate the mouse up happily very pleased it went quite well as was a bit worried about first feed

Really glad they ate for u next time if hes a lil reluctant again try warming it up in some warm water (not hot) usuually does the trick for me and saves having to do the nasty braining thing lol

We defrosted them in warm water and before we brained the mouse we put him on the heat mat aswell for 5 mins it seemed to me that he realised it was food when he could smell the brains it was gross but luckily my husband didn't mind doing it, it was such a relief when he took it
