Firstly, "Hi".
As the title says, I am new to BP's. I have had a corn snake for for over a year now and he is doing great and a BP was a dream come true for me to own.
I got her on Saturday from Pets at Home. The shop said they she is not a voracious feeder but eats warmed fluffs and she is about 6 months old. She is a wonderful snake ( I will post a pic asap).
I was told her feeding day Sunday, so the day after I got her I tried to feed her in a separate box from the viv she is in. She struck the mouse first time but did not eat it, She sort of constricted it for a few minutes and then just laid on it. I also tried feeding back in the viv as this is what the shop did but no luck, After a while she hissed at me because i tried remove the kitchen towel she was on to stop her eating aspen, so I thought, let her be.
I know I shouldn't worry too much but after having a corn that eats like a dream, it's slightly worrying to come across this.
I have her in a viv like this http://www.bluelizardreptiles.co.uk/..._8ZBoCBCrw_wcB and the temps are how they should be. I have one hide and will add and identical one tonight and a water bowl.
Any tips/reassurance on the above would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
PS here she is
