Forcing IT to take Market Prawn

[sebarau]

Guys,
I wonder how long it takes to force 6" to 7" IT to take market prawn? I've got two IT that still refusing to take MP for almost 2 weeks now. The 2 small ones are taking the MP like a champ..only the 2 bigger ones still very stubborn.. is it still safe to continue forcing them??? When I should give in ???

Do not give in if you want them to start eating them. I have never seen a Dat starve to death if they are offered food. It is going to take some time for the larger ones if they have been eating live their whole lives.

Got a 5 inch NGT thats going on 7 months without food. Hopefully he doesnt hold out much longer because hes getting really skinny. Hes actually watching the other dats eat now but hasnt tried it himself yet. GL with yours

I agree with all the posts up there. I also had the same experience as vanimate but mine lasted months and he was a tiny 3.5" He survived but he was wafer thin.
