Hi Group, I was hoping someone could help me … I am trying to stimulate the appetite of an adult, female DBT. I have reason to believe she was wild caught at some point. She doesn’t seem to respond to what I have tried so far … shrimp, turtle pellets (I knew that was a long shot), and feeder/goldfish. I am worried that I am going to have to start force feeding her somehow. When should I consider doing that and how would I go about it? I’ve tried waving shrimp in front of her face to entice her to bite it but it doesn’t work. Other than her lack of appetite she seems otherwise healthy and active. Thanks to anyone who responds!
TRY FROZEN OR FRESH WHOLE FISH. I USE PILCHARDS THERE ABOUT 5-6 ” AND WORK VERY WELL.SCOTT“Erin L. French”
