Help needed! Pops has stopped feeding
Hey guys; new to Reddit. Prior to the rest of the story, he was having a fuzzy every 4 days with no issues.
Just need some advice, our male hognose has refused his normal feeding routine since we tried giving him a rat pup. On 1/5/26, we tried feeding him a rat pup which he was absolutely disgusted by & refused to eat this, this was followed by a normal fuzzy which he also refused to eat which is understandable as he was pissed off.
About 10 mins after he was glass surfing like he usually does when he’s hungry, so we tried again a few hours later & again he refused. He has glass surfed every day since & has only taken one fuzzy which was yesterday 11/5/26 & continues to glass surf. He is absolutely fine in himself & is growing really well but since the rat pup, he has been so off his food.
With regard to the fuzzy’s, we’ve tried poking a hole in the head so he can smell the scent me strongly but nothing is working. He should have had 3 feeds since that first day but has had one.
Husbandry & tank perimeters are perfect & he loves being held.
Any advice is welcome to help us get him feeding again.
I will attach a pic to show how cute he is 🤣
