Re: Hatchling Western

It depends on how old it is. Most hatchlings do not need or want to eat until their first shed. I know they can go for months without eating. Just try all the trick, like braining the pinkie, scenting it with frogs or chicken soup broth, offering live. Put the snake and the pinkie in a paper bag and leaving it over night. But do not stress it out by trying to feed it to often. Give it at least 5 days between offering it food. The trick is determination and patience.
