Re: Baby sand boa won’t eat

Pictures are going to be helpful. You need to make 5 or so posts before you can post pictures, so I recommend making multiple short responses to this thread to meet the minimum posting requirement.

Information about your cage size, substrate, temperatures, the types of thermometers you use to measure temperatures, the thermostat you use to regulate temperatures, etc will be helpful.

Are you offering live pinkies or frozen/thawed ones?

If the sand boa is big enough to eat a pinky then it has been eating for some time. It would be helpful if we knew how old the snake was and whether it is male or female. Young sand boas need to eat weekly, adults have slower metabolisms and eat less frequently.

There are a number of tricks that can be used to get sand boas feeding, but making sure the cage is set up properly is the easiest way to get the snake eating.
