First Time Feeding-A Little Help,Please!
So I finally got my new snake-a handsome pastel enichi male ball! His name is Asriel, and I got him at least two weeks ago.He is in a small viv currently-a LOCKING one, so no more escapees- but when he gets bigger I'll be upgrading.
Back at the store he along with the many other ball pythons were being fed small rats and large mice, but when I got him I tried a pinkie on him to see if he was interested. I put him in a separate bin, but he was more interested in trying to get out of the bin, so I tried it out back in his viv.In his viv he was too nervous to eat, so I left the pinkie in the viv and turned off the lights. I came back hours later and he still hadn't eaten, so I tried it out again the next day with the same result.
I decided to try out a small rat this time. This rat was a little bit more...bloodier? Some blood seeped out of the nose, which Asriel was kinda interested in, but like the pinkie he just tried escaping the bin. Currently I have the rat in the viv with him with my room's lights off, but is there anything I am missing?Any tips?
Also, he doesn't seem to be hiding in his hide, should I try something else out or is he just not interested in it?
