Last night at shot time Jerry was at 400.. This morning at feeding (5:00a.m.) he was at 89 I did NOT shoot. Two hours later he is at 65.. He ate only a small amount for breakfast.. What do I do is 65 to low?
 
Since you don't have very much data on Jerry yet and you don't have your spreadsheet up so I can see what he's been doing the last few days, I wouldn't shoot a 65 this morning.

If you can continue to stall (don't feed) and he goes up to around 200, you could shoot then (as long as you're able to be home to test today) but otherwise I'd probably skip

If you do stall until he's about 200, you also have to be able to move his next shot time 12 hours, so you have to make sure your schedule is that flexible too
 
He already ate this morning at 5:00. It was 89 and after he ate it has went down to 65. It's been over 12 hours since his last insulin shot. I will continue to test and see where we go.
 
It was fine to feed him at that time April. Jerry needs his fudz. :) If Jerry's pancreas is responding to incoming food by pulsing insulin then it should do that regardless of the feeding time.

It's really great that you managed to catch this development with your testing. :) It lets you know to be diligent with your testing, and will help you avoid him going too low. I'd suggest posting this evening with today's test results and asking for advice about dosing. If you can manage it, it might be a good idea to test him today before a meal and then at 1 and 2 hours after the feed. That may show a drop in BG again.
