Re: My baby Kenyan won't eat!

What I would do is place the snake in a deli cup, with the pinky, place the deli cup in the tub or enclosure, and leave everything in a dark, quiet room for awhile....This has been a trick that has worked for me with a lot of hesitant eaters...

Also, what is your setup like, temps, substrate and such....the more we know about your setup, the more we can help you out

It worked! Thank you so much!

She's in a three gallon container, with aspen, water and a hotspot of about 95 degrees. Plenty of space considering how teeny she is.

You are very welcome! I'm glad it worked!

You might want to think about putting a few hides in the enclosure, just to give your new baby more security, since a Ten Gallon is pretty big for a baby
