So my newest beauty is a 2 1/2 year old eastern diamond! I have dealt with a lot of other vipers but i am having trouble with her! I cant seem to get her on a steady diet!! The first time i fed her the small rat it came up about 3 days later the second time it stayed down but she wont feed now!! Its been almost a month now!! She will just strike and let the rat lay there!! I started out with thawed than to live sincs that was what she kept down!! Any suggestions from anybody with a eastern?? Good thing is she has not lost any weight and is not acting sick since she drinks and moves around a lo!!

Hi I keep a tribe of eastern. I would say try feeding smaller prey items. Try full adult mice or hopper rats. Or full size African soft furs.
