Hi
I am a newbie that has just aquired my first python,(Carpet hatchling).
I have had him for close to two weeks, and I have been offering him pinkies (frozen, then thawed) but he is not interested.
He did just shed his skin last night, and I understand that they go off their food around that time, but how soon after shedding should he feel hungry again?
Also, if he does'nt like the frozen pinkies, is there anyone that knows where I can get some live ones? Or is there a live alternative to pinkies, say perhaps fish?
I am concerned because he hasn't eaten in the time we have had him, and being a little fella, surely he must need to keep his appetite up?
Thanks,
Kazann
