speaking for the chicken broth method
I just felt moved to post after my latest feeding attempt of Huxley and Marla tonight. Neither of them had eaten in a few weeks, and, while they showed minor interest in the rats, didn't strike. I was having trouble getting them interested, despite several methods.
Eventually, I decided to try dipping the head in chicken broth. WOAH, what a difference it made. Both snakes struck almost immediately. So, for any newbies looking for a method of enticement for their noneating ball pythons, try chicken broth. Let's just hope it works again ( ::knock wood:: !!)
