my new baby wont eat :(

[ilovemysnake]

I dont know what I'm doing wrong.

I've never had this problem before. I've tried tease feeding. all she does is attack it, but not eat it.

All my other snakes i've had never had a problem.

She might be shedding, i'm not sure. when i got her, her eyes were foggy and her skin has a pink tint to it. The thing is though, her eyes are still foggy, and no other signs of shedding.
when my other snakes shed, their eyes are only foggy for 2-4 days.

all temps and humidtys right. so what going on?

Also, this is my first luecistic texas rat. and.. well shes see through? is that normal? i've never had a snake like that in my life.

Put her in her own cage, no cohabbing , plenty of hides, a shed box/humid hide, let her be for a few days, then try again. Feed her innher enclosure, in a darkened room.

My new baby ball python did the same thing. I covered her tank and left her for 15 minutes and it was gone. Then took a 2nd one with no issues :) good luck!

if the snake was in blue and you still havn't seen a shed and the snake is refusing food, just leave it alone until it sheds. ive had snakes who are clockwork eaters refuse food when they are in blue.

i just checked her, and hey eyes arent blue anymore, but they were earlier.. so hopefully she sheds within a couple days, or its vet time.

its ashame, i hope shes ok & i hope i didnt buy a sickly animal.

When was she last fed? Young snakes should be fed regularly to maintain growth, but they can go for a very long without food. Unless she is losing weight, I wouldn't worry. If you still have both snakes in the same enclosure, I would suggest moving them into separate ones. Then just leave her alone for a while. See if she sheds. In a couple of days, offer her another meal.

I'm not sure when she was last fed. when i got her i asked them and they didnt know because i special ordered her. There was no paperwork or anything.
