So ihave had by male baby panther for 3 weeks now. His b-day is jan. 18. Anyway since ive got him, his appetote has slowly decreased but i also think i may be feeding him too late in the day, durimg the week, i leave my house forschool at around 6:45. So I cant feed him then, I get home at about 2:45. but i normally feed around 5 to 6. Maybe i will schedule a feeding around 3:30 on my new phone that i am typing on now to help set a regular reeding schedule. Another possible cause of this i think is i recently graduated him to "small" crix from 2wk old's. The last possibility i have in my mind is that he maybe getting bored of hunting in his cage i find he has a better responce when i offer crix on a ficus i have for outdoor basking. The breeder also reccomended i dust w/ rep cal calcium w/ D3 five days a week and use T-rex "Chameleon" dust 2 days a week.

Do not use D3 five days a week you only need that 2 times a month.. You want to use calcium with out D3 every feeding since he is a baby... Also you want to use a multivitamin twice a month also...try to follow this dusting schedule

MON-FRI--Calcium no D3
Saturday-- nothing
Sunday-- Alternate calcium w/D3 and multivitamin.

Your lil guy should have about 6-7 pin heads (depending on size) everyday

I would seriously try cup feeding

Also feed him around 12ish you dont want to feed them to late they need time and heat to digest.
