    Dosing needles

    Alright, I need some assurance on info i have on using the dosing needles.

    have a albino house snakes male that is 2 months old and 1 month no food. Last meal was half pinky head since then nothing. I assist fed pinky in mouth, he bites it but pulls off. 1 day old pinky mice are too big for him.

    Last resort is dosing needles to force him to eat.

    My question is thoses that have used them, how did you prepare everything, and where did you stop in snakes throat and inject.


    I bought the 14g,16g,18g,20g dosing needles.

    Anyone got advice on using them.

    On side note the lil bugger did eat finally a live pinky mouse. Dropped it in and forgot about it, 7 hours later he gobbles it down. So not sure what triggered him to eat, the downsize of containers or giving him 90 hot side. Going to gradually move him away from the heat back to the 82 room temp once he gets few more meals in him.

    And well now i got $95 worth of dosing needles i might never need now.
