                       Well my fun has started already, tried feeding Zeus & Hera today and they just arent interested   they'v been sat in their feeding tubs with the rat pups for a few hours now, it looks like they've bitten them a few time but they are still there.
  Zeus is 71g & Hera is 69g they are both on rat pups |

                       Are they big enough for rat pups?

                      |  they are thicker that the rat pups and would easily fit them in their mouths, thats what they were being fed on before i got them |

                       only 6 days but they were due i feed today so thought seen as its only a day early i'd try. Do you think they'd be ok left in the feeding tub over night with the rat pups? Thay are still on the heat mat |

                       Are they in separate tubs?
  If so I think they'll be ok, but still may not feed. |
