Hi.....Name is Kat and I'm new to the forum. I'm currently the proud owner of a hatchling normal color corn snake and a baby columbian rainbow boa. I also have two dogs. My boa Morpheus is doing great but having issues getting my little corn to eat...

. Tried again earlier but pinky still there. If Juno (hatchling corn) doesn't eat soon gonna have to bring him back to the guy I get my snakes from and he said he'll try and see if he can get him eating. Starting to worry about the little guy.

Hiya from a fellow Texan

So how long have you had your little corn? Did you give it time to settle before feeding? What is the temps, setup, ect. More info given the better the advice given back!

Welcome to the forums, hope you get the feeding situation sorted out.

You say corn is a hatchling - has it EVER eaten?

Hello and welcome! How often are you trying to feed it? If your trying to much you may be stressing it out. Try just leaving it alone for a few day let it settle down then try again.

Hi everyone.....baby corn finally ate friday night....friend had to help him with the first pinky...but once he got the idea...he ate the second on his own. My rainbow boa baby is doing really great too......walked outside with him just to see the sunlight on his scales and wow....so pretty !

Had to help with the first pinky?

Glad the snake is eating.
