How Long

[carolines100]

How long would a new born pup be able to go without eating before it dies

I don't have experience with pups but my small reticulata will only eat blood worms. I use a turkey baster to suck them up and gently squeeze them out under his disk.After only a couple of times he will now climb on the baster to feed. Good Luck

Ta for the bump . Hes 11 days old now i think hes eating. Feeding him earthworms but all he seems to do is suck them up and spit them out but the worm ends up flat so i think he dont like the worm skin. I hope hes ok as he is sold and wouldnt want him dying hes a batman ray too

Have you tried bloodworms?

 

[carolines100]

yes just end up in a pile in corner same as black worms . Hes very active always fighting his own reflection lol i do think hes sucking the meat out the worms and leaving skins. If he ad not ad anything surely he wouldnt be as active right ??

In my experience about 7-10 days if born in good body condition
