hey all i have a 5 year old female childrens. she has been a real clumsy feeder most of her life eg, taking her time (sometime hours) missing strikes, bit herself twice.. i always have fed f/t mice and and getting to my main question is does any need to jump start their snake to start them actually eating the meal.
she strikes
she coils
she goes over and over her coils to find the head
she find smells the head many times and moves on so after like 1/2 hour or so i start to blow on her sofly and she seem to be intices to eat but still nothing. i just fed her then and again she took a very long time and she eats on my bed so i didnt want to leave her there for too long so i put her back in her tank very carefully. and as i did this she struck the head and started eating. just seeing what your opinions are on my snake and did i just seem to get a clumsy one. lol cheers in advance paul..
