Hi all, obviously I'm not brand new to BPs..but I'm growing concerned about one of them. I picked up three very young babies at the Myrtle Beach show July 23, they appeared healthy and so far two of the three have been eating very well for me (the ghost pair).

The little pastel female has not fed once. She was only 48 grams when I picked her up (I had no idea they were all this small at the time)..the others were 55 and 61 and both are now past 80 grams. The pastel female is down to 45. That said, normally I wouldn't stress too much about nonfeeders, but she can't afford to lose much more weight. I had a BP go 5 months without eating and came out of it just fine, but this is the first time with such a small snake.

Would you recommend force feeding in this case? If so, rat tails or a small rat pinky? I'm beginning to doubt if she ever fed before she was sold. All three are housed in individual shoe boxes over heat cable..warm side is 88-90 and ambient room temperature is 80 and drops only a little at night. Thanks in advance.
