Hi All,
I wrote a while back about my Russian who had stopped eating and was losing weight. He had lost 10g in 2 months. He wasn’t big to start with only about 85g. Im pleased to report he’s now eating fine and gained 20g. I did bump my temps up a bit but I don’t think that was it. I did a naughty thing and gave him a small piece of tomato which he devoured but I think it upset his stomach (I know Russians shouldn’t really have any tomato) he was not the same after eating it. He normally pooped every day but after he never went for 10 days. I’m just struggling slightly with the winter varied diet, he is a flower eater but not many flowing plants to eat at the moment other than pansy.
On another note, I wanted to ask, he’s still quite timid, he will occasionally eat from my hand, he’s till very young, I suspect around 12-18 months. As he grows older and is hopefully is with us for a long long time, will he become more tame or are Russians just generally timid and antisocial [emoji57]
