hey,
i got my snake a week ago, even though it feels like aaaaaaaaaages!
and its been a little over a week since he/she (to young to be sexed yet) has eaten,
so it figured its time for a feed!
But he/she wont eat!
I put him/her into a different feeding tub as suggested.
Iv had the mouse thawed and warmed, and i tried first just putting it in and seeing if he/she would go it that way.
After a long time there was no action, he/her even crawled over it and had his head resting on it at one stage!
So i decided that maybe i should dangle it, as if to try and trick him/her into thinking its alive.
The snake was in a hide at one end of the enclosure and i dangled it out the front, he struck on 3 different occasions, but he didnt 'grab' it, more just hit and that was it.
so can everyone please help in suggesting what i should do!!??
cheers
