Thumbs up refused.....

Well Prana refused again..... *sighs* well I guess she will have to wait till next week, and if she don't eat, then she will have to wait another week, and if she don't eat a f/t, then we will go get her a live one......oh well........Good news is, I got great advice from everyone last time.......So i'm not to worried about it.......

i dunno how yours doesn't feed. Mine eats like a pig. Any way, did u cover the tank with cloth/news paper etc? it makes the snake feel more secure. I got that tip from Chondro Python, thanks to him, my python eats AAAAALL the time, hopefully he wont fast in the winter.

Well she's still a baby, And I think she is a picky eater....when I got her f/t fuzzy mouse, it completely thawed out before I was able to get it home and in the freezer. Then it was frozen again. So I think it is because it was frozen, thawed, frozen, thawed........

I have a very picky snake.........She ate a f/t pinkie. Infact she hit it so hard she nearly knocked the tongs out of my hands, and ripped the pinkie, leaving a foot hanging in the tongs.............I hope she's not stuck on pinkies!

As long as he's not loosing weight. Make sure the temps and humidity are right, check him for mites. How big is he, how long have you had him....if you just got him cover the cage sides (leave the top open for air) and let him alone for 2 weeks before trying to give him anything....and then offer him food on a regular basis. Like every friday at 8 pm.....on a tight scheduel until he is hungry. If he starts getting real skinny take him to the vet.....Look up "ball python not eating" or something similar on this website. and you will find TONS of info! Good luck

if all thing are good with his enviorment,temp,good weight,ect.I would not worry.
I have had males go 7-8 months and not take food no matter what I tried.as long as he looks good isn't losing too much weight.give it time he will eat on his own
