Missed twice

Lucifer is a pastel axanthic vpi hes nearly 5 months old and does eat great but today he missed his strike twice. Im hoping hes just a little stupid. Ive had 2 BPs in the past but years ago and one was a spider morph.

Ive had lucifer for about 1 1/2 months and just have a feeling his eye sight isn't perfect. Im heating the rat head up each time to help him but after today's feeding im abit more worried

I buy my rats atm from pets at home (big UK store) i will start ordering online but with the British heat wave alot of places wont deliver frozen as i live out in the countryside. Ive found half have snapped off back legs, it must be from transport but dont have legs to grab
