I posted this in my last thread, but hopefully I can get a response or two by starting a new one.
My little ones are turning 5 weeks old tomorrow. The little girl is taking to food well and seems to be nibbling but I haven't seen the boy eat the dry food at all. I also notice him still rushing to momma as if he's trying to nurse. It's necessary to point out that he is very shy and gets scared easily when trying to handle him. I've thought about if he won't eat when I'm around because he's scared to. I am concerned that the boy won't be weaned by the time I have to separate him from the girls, which I understand needs to happen within the next week or so.
If anyone has any advice on how to get him to eat or when I should separate him please let me know. Any info is useful.
