My Cali refused for the first time tonight. He is about to shed (milky eyes) so I guess that could be it. His fluff was also 6g and he only weighs 34g. His last one was 4g, could it be to big for him? Shalli just leave him and try again when he has shed. The fluff is currently on some card on top of the substrate in his Viv. He seems very rattly as well!
Any advice gratefully received.
Cheers

Probably just to do with the upcoming shed. One missed feed is nothing to worry about, neither is 2 or 3. Just try again after he has shed. As long as the fluff isn't more than 1.5 times the width of the widest part of his body it's fine.
