Boa not eating
We have a baby Central American Boa. We've had him for 2+1/2 weeks and he has not eaten yet. The things we have tried are frozen fuzzies, brained fuzzies, live fuzzy, putting him in the bath for a bit and then feeding him, feeding at night, putting him in a brown bag with the fuzzy over night under the heat lamp, covering his cage etc. His temperature gradient is fine and so is the humidity. My son has been holding him a lot as he loves him, but think I'm gonna stop that until he eats. Anything else we could try? I really don't want to "force" feed him as I have never done that before and it seems kind of crappy. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so very much!
