Re: White Lipped Python

Great news snoopy. And a beautiful snake. As you say hopefully he'll be on his food now. Shows what being patient and being led by the snakes behaviour does for sorting out feeding issues.

Re: White Lipped Python

Thanks guys. I'm pretty excited about this. I had tried giving him a chick just the other night and he practically decapitated it to let me know he didn't want it. Saw that he'd been out for a few days so I figured I should try again with a rat. Hopefully now he starts putting some weight on.

His face is black but when the light hits him right he gets a rainbow sheen, just like rainbow boas do. When he's outside he practically glows

Re: White Lipped Python

He'll come back online once it starts to warm up good and he gets fully out of breeding mode. Meals will become more frequent.
May I ask what you are doing to combat the mites? You've been treating for a good while now.....should be under control in this amount of time.
Cheers

Mites are gone Got them under control within a month. I was using NIX like normal, and very small pieces of no pest strips only outside of the enclosures. Also before I could make it to the store to pick up NIX I gave them all baths with a bit of regular blue dawn dish soap, which helped quite a bit. There was one snake who was in a planted enclosure, so I tried just no pest strips and dawn baths on him. Didn't work, he had ended up getting mites again so I tore down the enclosure and am treating with NIX, fortunately they didn't spread to the other snakes.

Re: White Lipped Python

Albert took another large rat tonight! After his last meal he had a large bowel movement with a large worm. I should have figured and I should have gotten a fecal done on him since he was even wild caught at all. I think I was lied to about how long he was in captivity. But I'm just glad I know and now have it taken care of, he has been a learning experience...He was treated with two doses of panacure and is on the road to recovery.
