my baby carpet python won't eat dead food

[shaunyboy]

heat the prey up with a hair dryer,stop every few minutes and feel the prey with your hand,once it feels roughly the same temperature as a live mouse/rat,then offer it with feeding tongs

you could always brain the prey,pierce the skull 2 or 3 times with the point of a pair of scissors.give the head an extra heat then offer

has your tank got plenty,hides,branches and fake plants ?

this will give your young carpet a feeling of security

also don't handle him,leave him in peace and quiet,only go near him to change his water every 5 to 7 days

cheers shaun
