Okay, so I received a healthy 2500+ female proven normal 8 egg layer female on May 23, 2014. Her previous owner informed me she had recently come off OFF-FEED (I capitalized off-feed because there were too many "off"s next to each other xD) and preferred small rats. Though to me she looks like she could easily, easily manage medium rats. This female is a monster. Her name is Arizona. But anyway, she won't eat for me at all. I waited a full week before even messing with her or offering food. Her enclosure is perfect temperature range according to her previous owner- I have been texting him (82 degrees ambient, not sure on hot spot but a lot warmer- not roasting or anything, 75-80 cold side). I don't have the perfect rack system in the world, I'll be honest, haha. But that's what I've got going on temperature wise.
In any case, I wonder if I try to keep offering her food every couple days or just leave her alone and attempt only a week at a time? I have never had a ball python actually go off-feed on me believe it or not. They have all had the hunger of Godzilla. It's a little crazy. I did soak one of her frozen thawed in chicken broth and give that a try because I hear they enjoy the smell- she flickered a lot, but returned to ignoring it all the same. Complete disinterest.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you kindly.
