So - I've built an outdoor habitat for my 2 new male Florida boxies and I put food out in the morning for an hour.
Tommy eats it right up and is happy as can be but Michael won't touch it ('it' being every trick in the book with variety, color and smells !)
Could be for several reason that Michael won't eat but it has been 3 weeks now (yes, i know they can go a long time but I want to make sure I am doing everything I can to keep them healthy).
It is possible that Michael would eat if I left the food outside all day / all night but then I'm inviting ants, bugs and mosquitoes to my front door area - let alone it is summer time and the heat and rain just destroy any and all food..
What can I do to help Michael?
Is there a type of food I could leave out that won't go bad / wont attract the insects?
