sick green anaconda (update)
my anaconda caught RI few weeks ago. over spring break, I sent her to somebody be taken care of. No meds were used, but heat and warm bath, and it seems to have worked extremely well. Originally, it was bubbling,weezing and had mucous comming out of its nose, but now, it's symptoms are mostly gone (only occasional bubbles from nose while inside water dish) and acts completely normal.
The only problem I have now is trying to get her to eat. I used live and dead mouse which seems to get her attention because she always comes up to it and flicks her tongue alot. However, it never strikes and retreats as soon as the mouse moves toward , but comes back up to it again. After 2-3 times, she loses interest. Before she got sick(3-4), she ate a pinky and a goldfish. Could the RI have made her a problem feeder?
