Omg!!!

I don't know if many of your remember but up until a few months back my ig, Odin really didn't eat very much. Well what a difference a couple of months can make he's started eating me out of house and home. His plate is full when I leave for work in the morning and I mean over flowing and normally on my return I need to feed him again. I can't say no to him he goes to his dish gives me the wide eyed look and I can't resist giving him a little more which is promptly eaten.

It amazing what happens when you just persevere!!

That is AWESOME Kirsty! I'm so glad to hear he's finally eating well for you! Must be making up for lost time, huh?

Glad to hear it Kirsty.

The same holds true for Rex. All winter he eats very little and the last 2 weeks he is gobbling it down faster than we can feed it.

Early spring usually shows an increase in appetite as they "bulk" up for spring and summer and the possibility of mating season.

Keep up the great work!

YAYAYAYAYAYAY! Thats wonderful! My ig has also suddenly resumed sucking down of all contents on his plate (including the non leafy content, which he seems to really like now).

Thanks everyone. I just hope it continues but since the last time he was at the vet in oct/nov he has put on 12 grammes. So progress is definitely being made. Oh and that was with out the tail on the scales, it wouldn't fit.

As long as the tail isn't resting on the table and is allowed to hang freely over the edge...the tail weight will be included...:-)
